Hello,
As there are many places in drm code where drm_alloc + memset is used
this patch series introduces drm_zalloc and also makes use of drm_calloc where
needed. Most of these patches save some bytes so the benefit is a few kB saved
(gcc 4.1.2) with patch applied. Also some small (style, etc.) things are fixed.
This patch series does the conversion drm tree-wide. All patches were compile
tested.
Please just convert it to plain kzalloc/kcalloc and kill these utterly useless
wrappers instead.
The wrappers aren't useless the drm alloc/free passes in a memory space
for debugging purposes so we can track memory abuse when developing,
but drm_zalloc shouldjust alias to drm_calloc really..
