From: Markus Elfring <elfring@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> Date: Mon, 6 Mar 2017 16:26:25 +0100 A multiplication for the size determination of a memory allocation indicated that an array data structure should be processed. Thus reuse the corresponding function "kcalloc". This issue was detected by using the Coccinelle software.
