* 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 specifications of data types by pointer dereferences
to make the corresponding size determination a bit safer according to
the Linux coding style convention.
