Dear Sascha Hauer,

This message is rather useless. It is really not expected for kzalloc
to fail. If it fails here you really have problems elsewhere and this
message won't help you debugging it.
It's not useless, but it'll hardly ever be displayed if you run out of memory so 
badly this kzalloc() will fail.
If you run out of memory while allocating a few bytes it's really
not interesting where exactly this happens. The message won't give
you any hint where you can fix this problem. Also, if you bail out
of a drivers probe function with -ENOMEM you will have a message
in the log anyway.
