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.

Linux kernel ============ This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file. Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
