[PATCH 1/4] pcmcia: pd6729: Use kcalloc() in pd6729_pci_probe()

[SF Markus Elfring]

From: Markus Elfring <elfring@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>

* A multiplication for the size determination of a memory allocation
  indicated that an array data structure should be processed.
  Thus reuse the corresponding function "kcalloc".

  This issue was detected by using the Coccinelle software.

* Replace the specification of a data structure by a pointer dereference
  to make the corresponding size determination a bit safer according to
  the Linux coding style convention.
