Erick Archer 98f2233a5c dmaengine: pl08x: Use kcalloc() instead of kzalloc()
This is an effort to get rid of all multiplications from allocation
functions in order to prevent integer overflows [1].

Here the multiplication is obviously safe because the "channels"
member can only be 8 or 2. This value is set when the "vendor_data"
structs are initialized.

static struct vendor_data vendor_pl080 = {
	[...]
	.channels = 8,
	[...]
};

static struct vendor_data vendor_nomadik = {
	[...]
	.channels = 8,
	[...]
};

static struct vendor_data vendor_pl080s = {
	[...]
	.channels = 8,
	[...]
};

static struct vendor_data vendor_pl081 = {
	[...]
	.channels = 2,
	[...]
};

However, using kcalloc() is more appropriate [1] and improves
readability. This patch has no effect on runtime behavior.

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the reStructuredText markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
