[PATCH 2/2] staging/rtl8192u: Prefer kcalloc over open coded arithmetic

[Len Baker <len.baker@gmx.com>]

Dynamic size calculations (especially multiplication) should not be
performed in memory allocator (or similar) function arguments due to the
risk of them overflowing. This could lead to values wrapping around and
a smaller allocation being made than the caller was expecting. Using
those allocations could lead to linear overflows of heap memory and
other misbehaviors.

So, use the purpose specific kcalloc() function instead of the argument
size * count in the kzalloc() function.
