Subject: i2c: jz4780: drop superfluous init
From: Wolfram Sang <wsa@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>
commit 27bfeb5a0619554d9734fb39e14f0e80fa7c342c upstream.
David reported that the length for memset was incorrect (element sizes
were not taken into account). Then I saw that we are clearing kzalloced
memory, so we can simply drop this code.
