Dma_pool_zalloc combines dma_pool_alloc and memset 0.  The semantic patch
that makes this transformation is as follows: (http://coccinelle.lip6.fr/)

// <smpl>

type T;
T *d;
expression e;
statement S;

        d =
-            dma_pool_alloc
+            dma_pool_zalloc
             (...);
        if (!d) S
-       memset(d, 0, sizeof(T));
