Subject: [PATCH 5/6] crypto: algif_rng - use sock_kzalloc in rng_accept_parent
Date: Mon, 27 Apr 2026 12:41:34 +0200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260427104129.309982-11-thorsten.blum@linux.dev> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260427104129.309982-7-thorsten.blum@linux.dev>
Replace sock_kmalloc() followed by memset(0) with sock_kzalloc() to
simplify rng_accept_parent().
