There are 2 things here.
The first thing that would be the best to do it proper framework which
is likely dma where dma_memset should be likely added.
The second that this code should land in SPL which can't be big that's
why this feature should be very small.

Based on above I think that would be good to have long term both of them
in the tree. It means feel free to send short version and let's look at
it and dma one should be hopefully pretty much using the same code via
dma framework.

Thanks,
Michal
