As this is now a pain to read/understand, and there's no comment
describing it so we'll not really understand it in a few months, let
alone years, how about we just do the trivial thing and make the
allocation with kzalloc() to start with?  And put a comment there saying
why it's zeroed out.

Sorry, I thought this was going to be a lot simpler based on your first
patch than this type of logic.
