We've always had a weird situation around dma_zalloc_coherent. To
safely support mapping the allocations to userspace major architectures
like x86 and arm have always zeroed allocations from dma_alloc_coherent,
but a couple other architectures were missing that zeroing either always
or in corner cases. Then later we grew anothe dma_zalloc_coherent
interface to explicitly request zeroing, but that just added __GFP_ZERO
to the allocation flags, which for some allocators that didn't end
up using the page allocator ended up being a no-op and still not
zeroing the allocations.
So for this merge window I fixed up all remaining architectures to zero
the memory in dma_alloc_coherent, and made dma_zalloc_coherent a no-op
wrapper around dma_alloc_coherent, which fixes all of the above issues.
dma_zalloc_coherent is now pointless and can go away, and Luis helped
me writing a cocchinelle script and patch series to kill it, which I
think we should apply now just after -rc1 to finally settle these
issue.
