["Robert P. J. Day" <rpjday@mindspring.com>]

  Delete the few remaining unnecessary calls to memset(0) after a call
to kzalloc().

Signed-off-by: Robert P. J. Day <rpjday@mindspring.com>

  AFAICT, these are the few remaining instances of this.  if you're
aware of any others, let me know and i can resubmit a revised patch.
