[PATCH] drivers/char/[i]stallion: Clean up kmalloc usage
Delete two useless kmalloc wrappers and use kmalloc/kzalloc. Some weird NULL checks are also simplified. Signed-off-by: Tobias Klauser <tklauser@nuerscht.ch> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@osdl.org> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@osdl.org>
