Coccinelle: kzalloc-simple: Rename kzalloc-simple to zalloc-simple

2018-01-16T14:40:17Z

Rename kzalloc-simple to zalloc-simple since now the rule is not specific to kzalloc function only, but also to many other zero memory allocating functions specified in the rule. Suggested-by: SF Markus Elfring Signed-off-by: Himanshu Jha Acked-by: Julia Lawall Signed-off-by: Masahiro Yamada

Coccinelle: kzalloc-simple: Add all zero allocating functions

2018-01-16T14:38:09Z

There are many instances where memory is allocated using regular allocator functions immediately followed by setting the allocated memory to 0 value using memset. We already have zero memory allocator functions to set the memory to 0 value instead of manually setting it using memset. Therefore, use zero memory allocating functions instead of regular memory allocators followed by memset 0 to remove redundant memset and make the code more cleaner and also reduce the code size.
