[PATCH 1/1] avr32/pata: avoid unnecessary memset




From: Christophe Jaillet <christophe.jaillet@xxxxxxxxxx>

Hi, here is a patch against linux/drivers/dma/iop-adma.c which :
	
1) Remove an explicit memset(.., 0, ...) to a variable allocated with
kzalloc (i.e. 'info').


Note: this patch is based on 'linux-2.6.25.tar.bz2'
