dma_zalloc_coherent() is no longer needed as it has no users because
dma_alloc_coherent() already zeroes out memory for us.

The Coccinelle grammar rule that used to check for dma_alloc_coherent()
+ memset() is modified so that it just tells the user that the memset is
not needed anymore.

Add more memory allocating functions that are frequently used in the
kernel code to the existing list and remove the useless casts where
it is unnecessary.

But preserve those casts having __attribute__ such as __force, __iomem,
etc. which are used by Sparse in the static analysis of the code.

Also remove two blank lines at EOF.

This script detects cases of use of cast for the value returned by
kmalloc, kzalloc, kcalloc, kmem_cache_alloc, kmem_cache_zalloc,
kmem_cache_alloc_node, kmalloc_node and kzalloc_node and removes
the cast as it is not useful. This Coccinelle script replaces
drop_kmalloc_cast.cocci as it removes the casting in more limited
cases of kmalloc, kzalloc and kcalloc.
