Actually, according to th original name choice it is stillsimple, becaue
it doesn't account for the possibility of many statement between the alloc
and the memset and it doesn't account for different ways of expressing the
size between the two calls.
If you want to be more general than kzalloc, then perhaps
zalloc-simple.cocci would be ok.
