Subject: [PATCH v2] devres: Fix devm_krealloc() allocating memory with wrong size

Kernel API devm_krealloc() calls alloc_dr() with wrong argument
@total_new_size, and it will cause more memory to be allocated
than required, fixed by using @new_size as alloc_dr()'s argument.

Fixes: f82485722e5d ("devres: provide devm_krealloc()")
