H A Dvmalloc.cdiff 4d67d860531ad5378dedfad7661c540f3365013d Tue May 29 17:06:21 CDT 2012 Thomas Meyer <thomas@m3y3r.de> mm: use kcalloc() instead of kzalloc() to allocate array

The advantage of kcalloc is, that will prevent integer overflows which
could result from the multiplication of number of elements and size and
it is also a bit nicer to read.

The semantic patch that makes this change is available in
