devres: Slightly optimize alloc_dr()

If the gfp flag used for the memory allocation already has __GFP_ZERO,
then there is no need to explicitly clear the "struct devres_node". It is
already zeroed.

This saves a few cycles when using devm_zalloc() and co.

In the case of devres_alloc() (which calls __devres_alloc_node()), the
compiler could remove the test and the memset() because it should be able
to see that the __GFP_ZERO flag is set.
So this would make the code both faster and smaller.
