Subject: [PATCH v2] bnxt: avoid overflow in bnxt_get_nvram_directory()

The value of an arithmetic expression is subject
of possible overflow due to a failure to cast operands to a larger data
type before performing arithmetic. Used macro for multiplication instead
operator for avoiding overflow.

Found by Security Code and Linux Verification
