From cf80ecf7a277e7908264f822c721f93403cf518f Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Markus Elfring Date: Fri, 16 Sep 2016 17:56:07 +0200 Subject: [PATCH] ste_dma40: Use kmalloc_array() in d40_lcla_allocate() * A multiplication for the size determination of a memory allocation indicated that an array data structure should be processed. Thus use the corresponding function "kmalloc_array". This issue was detected by using the Coccinelle software. * Replace the specification of a data type by a pointer dereference to make the corresponding size determination a bit safer according to the Linux coding style convention.
