Is there some particular reason why we don't have devm_kzalloc_flex()
other than that nobody has yet bothered to added one.
One of the most annoying thing with the various alloc APIs is that devm_*
variants seem to never keep up with them. It would be nice if there would
be some generic solution that when somebody decides a new alloc api func,
the corresponding devm counterpart would be auto-generated for it.

I'm not up to date with the hardening people. Anyway when it does,
this will get transformed by a treewide patch.
