+ bool "Skip memset at malloc init (reduce boot time)"
+ help
+ This avoids zeroing memory reserved for malloc at malloc init.
+ Significant boot time reduction is visible for configs in which
+ CONFIG_SYS_MALLOC_LEN value, has more than few MiB.
+ Useful for bzip2, bmp logo.
+ Warning:
+ When enable, make sure that calloc() is used when zeroed
+ memory is needed.
