There are many instances where memory is allocated using regular allocator
functions immediately followed by setting the allocated memory
to 0 value using memset.
We already have zero memory allocator functions to set the memory to
0 value instead of manually setting it using memset.
Therefore, use zero memory allocating functions instead of regular
memory allocators followed by memset 0 to remove redundant memset and
make the code more cleaner and also reduce the code size.

Oops!
Thank you so much!
I will send v2 patch with other necessary changes that Julia pointed me
out in the SmPL rule.
