Subject: [PATCH] liquidio: Use zeroing memory allocator than allocator/memset
Date: Sun, 31 Dec 2017 17:57:29 +0530	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1514723249-5736-1-git-send-email-himanshujha199640@gmail.com> (raw)

Use vzalloc for allocating zeroed memory and remove unnecessary
memset function.

Done using Coccinelle.
Generated-by: scripts/coccinelle/api/alloc/kzalloc-simple.cocci
0-day tested with no failures.

Suggested-by: Luis R. Rodriguez <mcgrof@kernel.org>
