[PATCH v2] ksmbd: Remove a redundant zeroing of memory

From: Christophe JAILLET
Date: Wed Mar 23 2022 - 02:32:16 EST


fill_transform_hdr() has only one caller that already clears tr_buf (it is
kzalloc'ed).

So there is no need to clear it another time here.

Remove the superfluous memset() and add a comment to remind that the caller
must clear the buffer.
