coccinelle: alloc_cast: drop removed allocatorsgrafted
- pci_alloc_consistent() and pci_zalloc_consistent() were removed by commit 7968778914e5 ("PCI: Remove the deprecated "pci-dma-compat.h" API") - kmem_alloc() was removed by commit f078d4ea8276 ("xfs: convert kmem_alloc() to kmalloc()") - kmem_zalloc() was removed by commit 10634530f7ba ("xfs: convert kmem_zalloc() to kzalloc()") - kmem_zone_alloc() and kmem_zone_zalloc() were removed by commit bae633a4a283 ("xfs: remove xfs_zone_{alloc,zalloc} helpers") So drop them from the rules. No functional change. Signed-off-by: Sang-Heon Jeon <ekffu200098@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Julia Lawall <Julia.Lawall@inria.fr>

+Description:
+ DMA buffers tend to have a alignment requirement for the
+ buffers. If this alignment requirement is not met samples might
+ be dropped from the buffer.
+
+ This property reports the alignment requirements in bytes.
+ This means that the buffer size in bytes needs to be a integer
+ multiple of the number reported by this file.
+
+ The alignment requirements in number of sample sets will depend
+ on the enabled channels and the bytes per channel. This means
+ that the alignment requirement in samples sets might change
+ depending on which and how many channels are enabled. Whereas
+ the alignment requirement reported in bytes by this property
+ will remain static and does not depend on which channels are
+ enabled.
