Strictly speaking this should be `size_add(size_mul(...) ...)` construction
from overflow.h.

total_ch = size_mul(ch_num, vm_num);
in_config = devm_kcalloc(dev, size_add(total_ch, 1),
sizeof(*in_config), GFP_KERNEL);

Alternatively before doing all these, add a check

if (array3_size(ch_num, vm_num, sizeof(*in_config)) < SIZE_MAX - sizeof(*in_config))
return -EOVERFLOW;

But this is a bit monstrous. Seems like the above looks and feels better.

Also for backporting purposes perhaps it's fine to do without using those macro
helpers.
