From: Markus Elfring <elfring@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> Date: Tue, 13 Sep 2016 17:51:32 +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.
