Subject: [PATCH] staging: comedi: das1800: prefer kmalloc_array over kmalloc with multiply

Checkpatch doesn't like kmalloc with multiply very much:
drivers/staging/comedi/drivers/das1800.c:1377: WARNING: Prefer kmalloc_array over kmalloc with multiply

So this patch swaps that use out for kmalloc_array instead.
