Commit Message

There are several early memory allocations in arch/ code that use
memblock_phys_alloc() to allocate memory, convert the returned physical
address to the virtual address and then set the allocated memory to zero.

Exactly the same behaviour can be achieved simply by calling
memblock_alloc(): it allocates the memory in the same way as
memblock_phys_alloc(), then it performs the phys_to_virt() conversion and
clears the allocated memory.

Replace the longer sequence with a simpler call to memblock_alloc().

memblock_alloc() uses memset to zeroize the block.

clear_page() is more performant than memset().

As far as I can tell, the majority of the page table pages will be anyway
allocated with __get_free_page() so I think the performance loss here will
negligible.

What is the point of keeping this wrapper?

Same here.

No point indeed. I'll remove it in v2.

Here it provides a shortcut for allocations with align == size, but can be
removed as well.
