arch/m68k/mm/motorola.c: Eliminate NULL test and memset after alloc_bootmem

Browse Source 
As noted by Akinobu Mita in patch b1fceac2b9,
alloc_bootmem and related functions never return NULL and always return a
zeroed region of memory.  Thus a NULL test or memset after calls to these
functions is unnecessary.

This was fixed using the following semantic patch.
(http://www.emn.fr/x-info/coccinelle/)

expression E;
statement S;

E = \(alloc_bootmem\|alloc_bootmem_low\|alloc_bootmem_pages\|alloc_bootmem_low_pages\)(...)
.. when != E
(
- BUG_ON (E == NULL);

- if (E == NULL) S
)

expression E,E1;

E = \(alloc_bootmem\|alloc_bootmem_low\|alloc_bootmem_pages\|alloc_bootmem_low_pages\)(...)
.. when != E
- memset(E,0,E1);
