Hi all,

Jakub replaced the simple loop zeroing parts of the array in a previous patch.
This patchlet just adjusts the comment to be a bit more accurate.

Committed as obvious.

Thanks,
Kyrill

     * gimple-ssa-store-merging.c (clear_bit_region): Replace reference to
     loop in comment with memset.
