Subject: [PATCH] mm/shmem: use kmem_cache_zalloc in shmem_alloc_inode()
Date: Mon, 16 Nov 2020 01:40:26 +0800	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20201115174026.GA365412@rlk> (raw)

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().
