This reverts commit 22072e83ebd510fb6a090aef9d65ccfda9b1e7e4 as it is broken. Alan writes: What you can't see just from reading the patch is that in both cases (ehci->itd_pool and ehci->sitd_pool) there are two allocation paths -- the two branches of an "if" statement -- and only one of the paths calls dma_pool_[z]alloc. However, the memset is needed for both paths, and so it can't be eliminated. Given that it must be present, there's no advantage to calling dma_pool_zalloc rather than dma_pool_alloc.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
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.
