Subject: [PATCH] wlcore: consolidate kmalloc + memset 0 into kzalloc
Date: Mon, 21 Dec 2015 17:47:44 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1450716464-20759-1-git-send-email-hofrat@osadl.org> (raw)

This is an API consolidation only. The use of kmalloc + memset to 0
is equivalent to kzalloc.

Signed-off-by: Nicholas Mc Guire <hofrat@osadl.org>
---

Found by coccinelle script (relaxed version of
scripts/coccinelle/api/alloc/kzalloc-simple.cocci)

Patch was compile tested with: x86_64_defconfig +
CONFIG_WL12XX=m (implies CONFIG_WLCORE=m)

Patch is against linux-next (localversion-next is -next-20151221)
