Subject: Re: [PATCH v2 19/27] staging: rtl8*: use zeroing allocator rather
than allocator followed with memset 0

Maybe it would be better to just change these to the appropriate kmalloc
and kzalloc calls.
You will need to check on whether locks are held to know whether the secon
argument should be GFP_ATOMIC or GFP_KERNEL. The current code doesn't
address this issue in a correct manner.
You may also want to add some options to your get_maintainer call to not
send patches to everyone who has ever worked on the driver.
