From: Lars-Peter Clausen <lars@xxxxxxxxxx> commit 20ea39ef9f2f911bd01c69519e7d69cfec79fde3 upstream. The trialmask is expected to have all bits set to 0 after allocation. Currently kmalloc_array() is used which does not zero the memory and so random bits are set. This results in random channels being enabled when they shouldn't. Replace kmalloc_array() with kcalloc() which has the same interface but zeros the memory. Note the fix is actually required earlier than the below fixes tag, but will require a manual backport due to move from kmalloc to kmalloc_array.
