Good point, but we usually initialize only required fields of structures.
What about use of calloc() instead of malloc() for this structure
allocation, in s5p_sdhci_init() function?
Some time ago, the the memory reserved for malloc was initialized with
zeroes at early init, so potentially "bugs" like this one, were hidden
very well.
