Printing numbers in parentheses (%d) adds no value and should be avoided.

		Chapter 13: Allocating memory

The kernel provides the following general purpose memory allocators:

kmalloc(), kzalloc(), kcalloc(), and vmalloc().  Please refer to the API

documentation for further information about them.

The preferred form for passing a size of a struct is the following:

	p = kmalloc(sizeof(*p), ...);

The alternative form where struct name is spelled out hurts readability and

introduces an opportunity for a bug when the pointer variable type is changed

but the corresponding sizeof that is passed to a memory allocator is not.

Casting the return value which is a void pointer is redundant. The conversion

from void pointer to any other pointer type is guaranteed by the C programming

language.
