Subject: [PATCH 1/2] sparc: Use kmalloc_array() in three functions
Date: Thu, 25 Aug 2016 10:22:48 +0200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <fbdf6d83-08ac-a6b2-1674-53bc86c69ae8@users.sourceforge.net> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <0ca0235c-ddb9-0534-3bde-b4aaa48da92e@users.sourceforge.net>
From: Markus Elfring <elfring@users.sourceforge.net>

* Multiplications for the size determination of memory allocations
indicated that array data structures should be processed.
Thus reuse the corresponding function "kmalloc_array".
This issue was detected by using the Coccinelle software.
* Replace the specifications of data types by pointer dereferences
to make the corresponding size determination a bit safer according to
the Linux coding style convention.
