Borislav Petkov 9fb9ce392a EDAC/device: Get rid of the silly one-shot memory allocation in edac_device_alloc_ctl_info()
Use boring kzalloc() instead. Add pointers to the different allocated
members in struct edac_device_ctl_info for easier freeing later.

One of the reasons, perhaps, why it was done this way is to be able to
do a single kfree(ctl_info) without having to kfree() the other parts of
the struct too but that is not nearly a sensible reason as to why there
should be this obscure pointer alignment.

There should be no functional changes resulting from this.

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.
