Subject: checkpatch: add a couple new alloc functions to alloc with multiplies check
Date: Wed, 13 Sep 2023 18:41:47 -0700

vmalloc() and vzalloc() functions have now 2-factor multiplication
argument forms vmalloc_array() and vcalloc(), correspondingly.

Add alloc-with-multiplies checks for these new functions.

Simplify the original codes repeated else to use a hash.
