From 20ebc15e6c8f9772804fa10110bf074a7b1d25fa Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Markus Elfring Date: Thu, 25 Aug 2016 11:34:03 +0200 Subject: [PATCH] x86/efi: Use kmalloc_array() in efi_call_phys_prolog() * A multiplication for the size determination of a memory allocation indicated that an array data structure should be processed. Thus reuse the corresponding function "kmalloc_array". This issue was detected by using the Coccinelle software. * Replace the specification of a data type by a pointer dereference to make the corresponding size determination a bit safer according to the Linux coding style convention.
