Use kzalloc rather than duplicating its implementation, which
makes code simple and easy to understand.

<title>treewide: Remove uninitialized_var() usage</title>

<content type='text'>
Using uninitialized_var() is dangerous as it papers over real bugs[1]
(or can in the future), and suppresses unrelated compiler warnings
(e.g. "unused variable"). If the compiler thinks it is uninitialized,
either simply initialize the variable or make compiler changes.

In preparation for removing[2] the[3] macro[4], remove all remaining
needless uses with the following script:

git grep '\buninitialized_var\b' | cut -d: -f1 | sort -u | \
	xargs perl -pi -e \
		's/\buninitialized_var\(([^\)]+)\)/\1/g;
		 s:\s*/\* (GCC be quiet|to make compiler happy) \*/$::g;'

drivers/video/fbdev/riva/riva_hw.c was manually tweaked to avoid
pathological white-space.

No outstanding warnings were found building allmodconfig with GCC 9.3.0
for x86_64, i386, arm64, arm, powerpc, powerpc64le, s390x, mips, sparc64,
alpha, and m68k.

<title>mtd: Unconditionally update -&gt;fail_addr and -&gt;addr in part_erase()</title>

-&gt;fail_addr and -&gt;addr can be updated no matter the result of
parent-&gt;_erase(), we just need to remove the code doing the same thing
in mtd_erase_callback() to avoid adjusting those fields twice.

Note that this can be done because all MTD users have been converted to
not pass an erase_info-&gt;callback() and are thus only taking the
-&gt;addr_fail and -&gt;addr fields into account after part_erase() has
returned.

While we're at it, get rid of the erase_info-&gt;mtd field which was only
needed to let mtd_erase_callback() get the partition device back.

None of the mtd-&gt;_erase() implementations work in an asynchronous manner,
so let's simplify MTD users that call mtd_erase(). All they need to do
is check the value returned by mtd_erase() and assume that != 0 means
failure.

Initialization of 'erase_info-&gt;fail_addr' to MTD_FAIL_ADDR_UNKNOWN prior
erase operation is duplicated accross several MTD drivers, and also taken
care of by some MTD users as well.

Harmonize it: initialize 'fail_addr' within 'mtd_erase()' interface.

D1 and D2 macros are mostly uses to emit debugging messages.

Convert the logging uses of D1 &amp; D2 to jffs2_dbg(level, fmt, ...)
to be a bit more consistent style with the rest of the kernel.

All jffs2_dbg output is now at KERN_DEBUG where some of
the previous uses were emitted at various KERN_&lt;LEVEL&gt;s.
