Subject[PATCH 1/2] [media] pvrusb2-io: Use kmalloc_array() in pvr2_stream_buffer_count()
From
Date
From: Markus Elfring <elfring@users.sourceforge.net>
Date: Thu, 22 Dec 2016 19:26:52 +0100

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

This issue was detected by using the Coccinelle software.
