[PATCH v3] drm/gud: Use kmalloc_array() instead of kmalloc()
Posted by Mehdi Ben Hadj Khelifa 2 months, 1 week ago 
Replace kmalloc with kmalloc array in drm/gud/gud_pipe.c since the
calculation inside kmalloc is dynamic 'width * height'

Signed-off-by: Mehdi Ben Hadj Khelifa <mehdi.benhadjkhelifa@gmail.com>

Changelog:

Changes since v2:
-Reversed width and height in parameter order.
Link:https://lore.kernel.org/all/20250923085144.22582-1-mehdi.benhadjkhelifa@gmail.com/
Changes since v1:
- Use of width as element count and height as size of element to
eliminate the mentionned calculation and overflow issues.

Acked-by: Thomas Zimmermann <tzimmermann@suse.de>

As Ruben already acked the previous patch, you should add such acks to 
any later patches. But no need to resend a new iteration now. I'll add 
Ruben's a-b when I merge the patch.

Best regards
Thomas
