Few drivers are using kmalloc() to allocate memory for frequency tables and once we have an additional field '.flags' in 'struct cpufreq_frequency_table', these might become unstable. Better get these fixed by replacing kmalloc() by kzalloc() instead.
Along with that we also remove use of .driver_data from SPEAr driver as it doesn't use it at all. Also, writing zero to .driver_data is not required for powernow-k8 as it is already zero.

so that git bisect doesn't break. Though the chances of this field getting initialized to a value equal to BOOST, i.e. 0x1 are very rare.
