This is an effort to get rid of all multiplications from allocation
functions in order to prevent integer overflows [1].

Here the multiplication is obviously safe because MTK_PROTECT_PA_ALIGN
is defined as a literal value of 256 or 128.

For the "mtk_iommu.c" file: 256
For the "mtk_iommu_v1.c" file: 128

However, using devm_kcalloc() is more appropriate [2] and improves
readability. This patch has no effect on runtime behavior.
