mm: slab: provide krealloc_array()
When allocating an array of elements, users should check for multiplication overflow or preferably use one of the provided helpers like: kmalloc_array(). There's no krealloc_array() counterpart but there are many users who use regular krealloc() to reallocate arrays. Let's provide an actual krealloc_array() implementation. While at it: add some documentation regarding krealloc. Link: https://lkml.kernel.org/r/20201109110654.12547-3-brgl@bgdev.pl Signed-off-by:Bartosz Golaszewski <bgolaszewski@baylibre.com> Acked-by:
