Replace kmalloc -> kmalloc_array in drm/amd/amdgpu/amdgpu_ras.c .

As per said in the Documentation/process/deprecated.rst, dynamic size
calculation should not be performed in memory allocator function
arguments due to the risk of overflow.

Thanks for the patch.  Some already supplied a similar patch which was applied.
