io->sgl is allocated by kzalloc(). The memory is set to zero.
It is unnecessary to call memset again.

Applied to 5.19/scsi-queue, thanks!

Hi,

Nitpick: this kzalloc() should be a kcalloc() to avoid an open-coded 
multiplication when computing the size to allocate.

Seems like kcalloc() conversion could be a separate patch. Perhaps it 
could be done everywhere using a coccinelle script.

Sure it can and I guess that many coccinelle script already exist for it.

I only replied here because of a comment from Joe Perches on the same 
patch a few month ago (see [1] and [2])

So Wan Jiabing or anyone else, if you want to go one step further, just 
feel free to propose it.
