From 01e23742b276cb8cb53bf727c4b1c50fae1860e7 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Thomas Meyer Date: Tue, 29 Nov 2011 11:08:00 +0000 Subject: bnx2x: Use kcalloc instead of kzalloc to allocate array 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.
