Jens Axboe 2bc4ca9bb6 aio: don't zero entire aio_kiocb aio_get_req()
It's 192 bytes, fairly substantial. Most items don't need to be cleared,
especially not upfront. Clear the ones we do need to clear, and leave
the other ones for setup when the iocb is prepared and submitted.

README

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
