/**
 * devm_kzalloc - Resource-managed kzalloc
 * @dev: Device to allocate memory for
 * @size: Allocation size
 * @gfp: Allocation gfp flags
 *
 * Managed kzalloc.  Memory allocated with this function is
 * automatically freed on driver detach.  Like all other devres
 * resources, guaranteed alignment is unsigned long long.
 *
 * RETURNS:
 * Pointer to allocated memory on success, NULL on failure.
 */

The same applies to all other devm_* functions.
