[failures] mm-shmem-use-kmem_cache_zalloc-in-shmem_alloc_inode.patch removed from -mm tree

[akpm]

The patch titled
     Subject: mm/shmem: use kmem_cache_zalloc in shmem_alloc_inode()
has been removed from the -mm tree.  Its filename was
     mm-shmem-use-kmem_cache_zalloc-in-shmem_alloc_inode.patch

This patch was dropped because it had testing failures

------------------------------------------------------
From: Hui Su <sh_def@163.com>
Subject: mm/shmem: use kmem_cache_zalloc in shmem_alloc_inode()

in shmem_get_inode():
new_inode();
  new_inode_pseudo();
    alloc_inode();
      ops->alloc_inode(); -> shmem_alloc_inode()
        kmem_cache_alloc();

memset(info, 0, (char *)inode - (char *)info);

So use kmem_cache_zalloc() in shmem_alloc_inode(),
and remove the memset in shmem_get_inode().
