  checkpatch: add new alloc functions to alloc with multiplies check (2022-04-26 01:30:33 -0500)

Add new functions to alloc check for 5.19-rc1

Hi Linus,

Please, pull the following patch that adds new alloc functions to alloc
with multiplies check.

kvmalloc() and kvzalloc() functions have now 2-factor multiplication
argument forms kvmalloc_array() and kvcalloc().

Add alloc-with-multiplies checks for these new functions.

Thanks

Gustavo
