s390/dasd: Replace get_zeroed_page() with kzalloc()

Browse Source 
DASD driver uses get_zeroed_page() to allocate pages for the Extended Error
Reporting software ring buffer and for a scratch buffer for formatting
sense dump diagnostic text.

These buffers can be allocated with kmalloc() as there's nothing special
about it to go directly to the page allocator.

kmalloc() provides a better API that does not require ugly casts and
kfree() does not need to know the size of the freed object.

Performance difference between kmalloc() and __get_free_pages() is not
measurable as both allocators take an object/page from a per-CPU list for
fast path allocations.

For the slow path the performance is anyway determined by the amount of
reclaim involved rather than by what allocator is used.

Replace use of get_zeroed_page() with kzalloc() and free_page() with
kfree().
