>> drivers/nvme/target/pr.c:831:8-15: WARNING: kzalloc should be used for data, instead of kmalloc/memset
The pattern of using 'kmalloc' followed by 'memset' is replaced with
'kzalloc', which is functionally equivalent to 'kmalloc' + 'memset',
but more efficient. 'kzalloc' automatically zeroes the allocated
memory, making it a faster and more streamlined solution.
