Subject[PATCH 3/4] ARM: OMAP: Use kcalloc() in omap_system_dma_probe()
From
Date
From: Markus Elfring <elfring@users.sourceforge.net>
Date: Tue, 3 Oct 2017 21:07:33 +0200

* A multiplication for the size determination of a memory allocation
indicated that an array data structure should be processed.
Thus use the corresponding function "kcalloc".

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.
