[PATCH -next] gpio: Use kzalloc() to allocate struct gpio_device to fix crash

[Geert Uytterhoeven]

gpiochip_add_data() allocates the struct gpio_device using kmalloc(),
which doesn't zero the returned memory.

Hence when calling dev_set_name(), it may try to free a bogus old name,
causing a crash:

    Unable to handle kernel NULL pointer dereference at virtual address 00000000
    ...
    Backtrace:

Use kzalloc() instead of kmalloc() to fix this.

See also the comment for device_initialize():

    All fields in @dev must be initialized by the caller to 0, except
    for those explicitly set to some other value.  The simplest
    approach is to use kzalloc() to allocate the structure containing
    @dev.
