[PATCH 2/2] fs/buffer.c: remove redundant initialization in alloc_page_buffers()

From: Yan Hong
Date: Thu Nov 22 2012 - 17:23:58 EST


buffer_head comes from kmem_cache_zalloc(), no need to zero
its field.

init_buffer() can be actually removed too, but I'm afraid someday its
semantic will beyond initializing ->b_end_io and ->b_private.
