    arch/avr32: Eliminate NULL test and memset after alloc_bootmem · e2450019
    Julia Lawall authored
    As noted by Akinobu Mita in patch b1fceac2,
    alloc_bootmem and related functions never return NULL and always return a
    zeroed region of memory.  Thus a NULL test or memset after calls to these
    functions is unnecessary.
    
    This was fixed using the following semantic patch.
