Subject: [PATCH] usb: use kcalloc instead of kzalloc
Date: Tue, 19 Aug 2014 16:08:01 +0530 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <1408444681-1601-1-git-send-email-arjun024@gmail.com> (raw)
kcalloc has protection from integer overflows
which could arise from the multiplication of
number of elements and size.
