A common flaw in the kernel is integer overflow during memory allocation size calculations. In an effort to reduce the frequency of these bugs, kmalloc_array was implemented, which allocates memory for an array, while at the same time detects integer overflow. This patch replaces cases of: kmalloc(a * b, gfp) with: kmalloc_array(a, b, gfp) Reviewed-by: Kees Cook <keescook@chromium.org> Signed-off-by: Gustavo A. R.
