Enrico Weigelt, metux IT consult 6dac1cd970 dix: replace xallocarray() by calloc() ...

Only key difference that calloc(), in contrast to rellocarray(),
is zero-initializing. The overhead is hard to measure on today's
machines, and it's safer programming practise to always allocate
zero-initialized, so one can't forget to do it explicitly.

Cocci rule:

    @@
    expression COUNT;
    expression LEN;
    @@
    - xallocarray(COUNT,LEN)
    + calloc(COUNT,LEN)
