  The pool pointer variable gets the kzalloc_node function return value
directly at definition time, which should be more concise.

This looks pretty useless as a change, the generated code is going to be 
the same before/after, it is also not more readable, and it is 
definitively not an optimization in the sense that optimization should 
be used as meaning: the code is more efficient after that change.
