[PATCH] arm: sys_oabi-compat: Use kmalloc_array() in two functions

From: SF Markus Elfring <hidden>
Date: 2016-08-25 15:51:19
Also in: kernel-janitors, lkml
Subsystem: arm port, the rest · Maintainers: Russell King, Linus Torvalds

From: Markus Elfring <redacted>
Date: Thu, 25 Aug 2016 17:45:23 +0200

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.
