Hello,

        This patch removes memset() from snd_emu10k1_fx8010_info() which 
apparently
isn't needed there. Upatched code uses:

memset(info, 0, sizeof(info));

where 'info' is a pointer and therefore only first 4 bytes of 'info' gets 
cleared on a 32bit
machine. Anyway looking at the code zeoring this memory region isn't needed at 
all because
the snd_emu10k1_fx8010_info() function initializes all the 'info' fields on its 
own.
So that's why this code works at all in its original form.

This patch removes this redundant code. Also snd_emu10k1_fx8010_info() can't 
fail so lets save
some bytes and change its return type to void.
