[PATCH 06/14] block: drop double zeroing

From: Julia Lawall
Date: Sun Sep 20 2020 - 08:09:53 EST


sg_init_table zeroes its first argument, so the allocation of that argument
doesn't have to.

the semantic patch that makes this change is as follows:
(http://coccinelle.lip6.fr/)

// <smpl>
@@
expression x;
@@

x =
- kzalloc
+ kmalloc
(...)
...
sg_init_table(x,...)
// </smpl>
