Use kzalloc instead of kmalloc in the comment/message according to
the previous kzalloc() call.

I would be happy to apply this, but this needs to show a connection
between Liao Pingfang and Yi Wang.

Ideally this patch would be sent directly by Liao Pingfang. The
sender should at least appear in the Signed-off-by chain. See
Documentation/process/submitting-patches.rst

Please take a look at Documentation/process/submitting-patches.rst.
Specifically, it says:

Notably, the last Signed-off-by: must always be that of the
developer submitting the patch.

You are submitting the patch, but you didn't add a Signed-off-by.

Of course, adding your Signed-off-by means you are agreeing to the
"Developer's Certificate of Origin" (also in that file), which tells
me that the patch is licensed correctly and that you have the right to
submit it.

In addition, your signed-off-by means that if there are issues with
the patch, I will look to you (and Liao Pingfang, obviously) to help
resolve them.

So if that is all acceptable to you, just post this again with your
own signed-off-by below Liao Pingfang's.
