[PATCH] zonefs: Simplify the allocation of slab caches in zonefs_init_inodecache

[Kunwu Chan]

Use the new KMEM_CACHE() macro instead of direct kmem_cache_create
to simplify the creation of SLAB caches.

I do not really see a meaningful simplification here. Using kmem_cache_create()
directly is not *that* complicated... Also, this changes the name of the cache
from "zonefs_inode_cache" to "zonefs_inode_info".

The main reason is 'it hides all the 0 or NULL parameters'.

Cache name is used in /proc/slabinfo to identify this cache.

Thank again for taking the time to review and reply.
