[PATCH v2 1/2] iommu/arm-smmu-v3: Avoid open coded arithmetic in memory allocation

kmalloc_array()/kcalloc() should be used to avoid potential overflow when
a multiplication is needed to compute the size of the requested memory.

So turn a devm_kzalloc()+explicit size computation into an equivalent
devm_kcalloc().

This is NOT compile tested.
I don't have the needed cross compiling tools.

v2: - no changes
    - Acked-by added
