kvcalloc is same as kvmalloc_array + __GFP_ZERO.

trivia:
The DRM_DEBUG could also be removed as the the alloc will do a
a dump_stack on failure.
Thanks for sharing your comments.
DRM_DEBUG statements are present in other parts of code as well. So
didnot remove it.
Example below:
drivers/gpu/drm/v3d/v3d_gem.c at 322.
311 job->bo = kvmalloc_array(job->bo_count,
312 sizeof(struct drm_gem_cma_object *),
313 GFP_KERNEL | __GFP_ZERO);
314 if (!job->bo) {
315 DRM_DEBUG("Failed to allocate validated BO
pointers\n");
316 return -ENOMEM;
317 }
318
319 handles = kvmalloc_array(job->bo_count, sizeof(u32),
GFP_KERNEL);
320 if (!handles) {
321 ret = -ENOMEM;
322 DRM_DEBUG("Failed to allocate incoming GEM
handles\n");
323 goto fail;
