Subject: [PATCH 09/17] drivers: Initialize resource entry to zero

From: Toshi Kani <toshi.kani@....com>

I/O resource descriptor, 'desc' in struct resource, needs to be
initialized to zero by default.  Some drivers call kmalloc() to
allocate a resource entry, but do not initialize it to zero by
memset().  Change these drivers to call kzalloc(), instead.
