Subject[PATCH v3] usb: iowarrior: replace kmalloc with kmalloc_array
A common flaw in the kernel is integer overflow during memory allocation
size calculations. In an effort to reduce the frequency of these bugs,
kmalloc_array was implemented, which allocates memory for an array,
while at the same time detects integer overflow.

This patch replaces cases of:

kmalloc(a * b, gfp)

with:
kmalloc_array(a, b, gfp)

Changes in v3:
- Update commit log.

Changes in v2:
- Align GFP_KERNEL to open parenthesis.
