* A multiplication for the size determination of a memory allocation indicated that an array data structure should be processed. Thus use the corresponding function "devm_kcalloc".
This issue was detected by using the Coccinelle software.
* Replace the specification of a data structure by a pointer dereference to make the corresponding size determination a bit safer according to the Linux coding style convention.
