Subject: [PATCH] backlight: pwm_bl: Avoid open coded arithmetic in memory allocation
Date: Sat, 5 Feb 2022 08:40:48 +0100 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <bd3d74acfa58d59f6f5f81fc5a9fb409edb8d747.1644046817.git.christophe.jaillet@wanadoo.fr> (raw)
kmalloc_array()/kcalloc() should be used to avoid potential overflow when
a multiplication is needed to compute the size of the requested memory.
So turn a kzalloc()+explicit size computation into an equivalent kcalloc().
