[PATCH 0/4] mm: add dma_pool_zalloc() & pci_pool_zalloc()

Currently a call to dma_pool_alloc() with a ___GFP_ZERO flag returns
a non-zeroed memory region.

This patchset adds support for the ___GFP_ZERO flag to dma_pool_alloc(),
adds 2 wrapper functions for allocing zeroed memory from a pool,
and provides a coccinelle script for finding & replacing instances of
dma_pool_alloc() followed by memset(0) with a single dma_pool_zalloc() call.
