From: Rajeshwar R Shinde <coolrrsh@xxxxxxxxx> dma_alloc_coherent function already zeroes the array 'addr'. So, memset function call is not needed. This fixes warning such as: drivers/dma/idxd/device.c:783:8-26: WARNING: dma_alloc_coherent used in addr already zeroes out memory, so memset is not needed.
