lvts_debugfs_init() is called with lvts_td->num_lvts_ctrl being 2, 3 or 4.
sizeof(struct debugfs_regset32) is small. 32 byres on a x86_64.
So, given the overhead of devm_kzalloc(), it is better to allocate all
needed regset at once.
The overhead of devm_kzalloc() is 40 bytes on a x86_64, and because of
rounding in memory allocation, it leads to:
2 * (32 + 40) = 2 * 72 --> 2 96 bytes allocations for a total of 192 bytes
3 * (32 + 40) = 3 * 72 --> 3 96 bytes allocations for a total of 288 bytes
4 * (32 + 40) = 4 * 72 --> 4 96 bytes allocations for a total of 384 bytes
using a single devm_kcalloc():
2 * 32 + 40 = 104 --> 1 allocation for a total of 128
3 * 32 + 40 = 136 --> 1 allocation for a total of 192
4 * 32 + 40 = 168 --> 1 allocation for a total of 192
So, this saves both a few bytes and reduce memory fragmentation.
