Subject: [PATCH] x_tables: Replace kmalloc(s*n) with kmalloc_array(n,s)
Date: Wed, 10 Aug 2016 14:06:13 +0400 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20160810100613.GA8870@void> (raw)
Replace kmalloc(s*n) with kmalloc_array(n,s), thus making it
easier to check that the calculation doesn't wrap or return a smaller
allocation
