Subject: [PATCH 2/6] lib/scatterlist: Skip requesting zeroed allocations in sgl_alloc_order
Date: Wed,  7 Mar 2018 12:47:08 +0000	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20180307124712.14963-3-tvrtko.ursulin@linux.intel.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20180307124712.14963-1-tvrtko.ursulin@linux.intel.com>

From: Tvrtko Ursulin <tvrtko.ursulin@intel.com>

sg_init_table will clear the allocated block so requesting zeroed memory
from the allocator is redundant.
