From: Markus Elfring <elfring@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> Date: Thu, 8 Sep 2016 15:43:37 +0200 * Multiplications for the size determination of memory allocations indicated that array data structures should be processed. Thus use the corresponding function "kmalloc_array". This issue was detected by using the Coccinelle software. * Replace the specification of data types by pointer dereferences to make the corresponding size determination a bit safer according to the Linux coding style convention.
