Member hw_perf_event::reg.reg is set but never used, so remove it.
Defines REG_NONE and REG_OVERFLOW are not referenced anymore.
The initialization to zero takes place in function
perf_event_alloc() where
...
event = kmem_cache_alloc_node(perf_event_cache,
GFP_KERNEL | __GFP_ZERO, node);
...
makes sure memory allocated for the event is zero'ed.
This is done in the kernel's common code in kernel/events/core.c
The struct perf_event contains member hw_perf_event as in
struct perf_event {
....
struct hw_perf_event hw;
....
};
This contained sub-structure is also initialized to zero.
No functional change.
