[PATCH] fbdev: auo_k190x: Use zeroing memory allocator than allocator/memset

From: Himanshu Jha <hidden>
Date: 2017-12-31 12:26:14
Also in: dri-devel, lkml
Subsystem: framebuffer layer, the rest · Maintainers: Helge Deller, Linus Torvalds

Use vzalloc for allocating zeroed memory and remove unnecessary
memset function.

Done using Coccinelle.
Generated-by: scripts/coccinelle/api/alloc/kzalloc-simple.cocci
0-day tested with no failures.
