'io->sgl' is kzalloced just a few lines above. There is no need to memset
it another time.

Better to use kcalloc as well and delete the memset

Sure, thanks for spotting it Joe.

Should a clean v2 be sent or the patch in your reply is enough?
As your proposal is better than mine, if a v2 is needed, can you do it?

Hi Christophe.

I just wondered about the multiplication in the memset.
You are the patch submitter and noticed it in the first place.
If needed I think you should do it.

cheers, Joe
