[PATCH 0/9] scsi: Use zeroing allocators than allocator/memset

[Himanshu Jha]

There are many instances where a region of memory is allocated using
allocator functions and immediately the region of memory is zeroed using
memset function.

We already have zeroing memory allocator function for that purpose and
replacing the currently used allocator functions with zeroing allocators
will make code cleaner, easier to read, and also reduce the code size.

For eg:

Before:
himanshu@himanshu-Vostro-3559:~/linux-next$ size drivers/scsi/bnx2fc/bnx2fc_hwi.o
   text    data     bss     dec     hex filename
  40783    5940      64   46787    b6c3 drivers/scsi/bnx2fc/bnx2fc_hwi.o

After: 
himanshu@himanshu-Vostro-3559:~/linux-next$ size drivers/scsi/bnx2fc/bnx2fc_hwi.o
   text    data     bss     dec     hex filename
  40619    5940      64   46623    b61f drivers/scsi/bnx2fc/bnx2fc_hwi.o

Also, all these patches have been tested using 0-day test service with
zero build failures.

Done using Coccinelle.
