Subject: [PATCH 1/1] ixgbe: use kzalloc for allocating one thing

Use kzalloc rather than kcalloc(1..

The semantic patch that makes this change is as follows:

// <smpl>
@@
@@

- kcalloc(1,
+ kzalloc(
          ...)
// </smpl>

and removing checkpatch below CHECK:
CHECK: Prefer kzalloc(sizeof(*fwd_adapter)...) over 
kzalloc(sizeof(struct ixgbe_fwd_adapter)...)
