[PATCH] x86/hpet: Use kmalloc_array() in hpet_enable()

[SF Markus Elfring]

From: Markus Elfring <elfring@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>
Date: Sun, 4 Sep 2016 21:30:10 +0200

A multiplication for the size determination of a memory allocation
indicated that an array data structure should be processed.
Thus use the corresponding function "kmalloc_array".

This issue was detected by using the Coccinelle software.
