What exactly the difference between kzalloc and kcalloc? From the definition, I could see that kcalloc should be used for array allocation. But I could see kzalloc is used for allocation arrays as in the below patch.
Any coding standard (or) developers can use kzalloc and kcalloc as per their coding practice??
