Subject: leds: Use kcalloc instead of kzalloc to allocate array
The advantage of kcalloc is that will prevent integer overflows which
could result from the multiplication of number of elements and size and it
is also a bit nicer to read.
The semantic patch that makes this change is available
in https://lkml.org/lkml/2011/11/25/107
