Subject: [PATCH 1/2] drm: mediatek: mtk_drm_plane: Use kmalloc in mtk_plane_duplicate_state

There is no need to zero out the newly allocated memory because we are
duplicating all members of struct mtk_plane_state: switch to kmalloc
to save some overhead.

Subject: [PATCH 2/2] drm: mediatek: mtk_drm_crtc: Use kmalloc in mtk_drm_crtc_duplicate_state

Optimize mtk_drm_crtc_duplicate_state() by switching from kzalloc() to
kmalloc(): the only variable of this struct that gets checked in other
functions is `pending_config`, but if that's set to false, then all of
the remaining variables will only ever be set, but not read - so, also
set `pending_config` to false.
This saves us some small overhead.

Hello,

this series was sent and reviewed two months ago, but it hasn't been picked
in any maintainer tree.

This is a friendly ping to not let these two patches to be lost and forgotten.

Cheers,
Angelo
