[PATCH] [media] v4l: s5p-tv: Use kcalloc instead of kzalloc toallocate array

From: Thomas Meyer
Date: Sat Dec 10 2011 - 07:59:38 EST


The advantage of kcalloc is, that will prevent integer overflows which could
result from the multiplication of number of elements and size and it is also
a bit nicer to read.

The semantic patch that makes this change is available
in https://lkml.org/lkml/2011/11/25/107
