commit df27cef153603b18a7d094b53cc3d5264ff32797 upstream.
According to [1], `NonNull<T>` and `#[repr(transparent)]` wrapper types
such as our custom `KBox<T>` have the null pointer optimization only if
`T: Sized`. Thus remove the `Zeroable` implementation for the unsized
case.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
