Replace devm_kzalloc() with devm_kcalloc() in drivers/pinctrl. As noted
in the kernel documentation [1], open-coded multiplication in allocator
arguments is discouraged because it can lead to integer overflow.
Use devm_kcalloc() to gain built-in overflow protection, making memory
allocation safer when calculating allocation size compared to explicit
multiplication.
