From: Kees Cook <kees+treewide@kernel.org>
In preparation for making the devm_kmalloc family of allocators type
aware, we need to make sure that the returned type from the allocation
matches the type of the variable being assigned. (Before, the allocator
would always return "void *", which can be implicitly cast to any
pointer type.)
This allocates one int per entry of max_mm_current_percent, but the size
was taken from the whole array, which would make the allocation type a
pointer to the array rather than the "int *" being assigned. Allocate
ARRAY_SIZE-many entries instead. The resulting allocation size is the
same: AAT1290_MM_CURRENT_SCALE_SIZE and
ARRAY_SIZE(max_mm_current_percent) are both 15.
Build tested ARCH=x86_64 allmodconfig with GCC 16.2.0:
