Patch series "Add kmalloc_array_node() and kcalloc_node()". Our current memeory allocation routines suffer form an API imbalance, for one we have kmalloc_array() and kcalloc() which check for overflows in size multiplication and we have kmalloc_node() and kzalloc_node() which allow for memory allocation on a certain NUMA node but don't check for eventual overflows. This patch (of 6): We have kmalloc_array() and kcalloc() wrappers on top of kmalloc() which ensure us overflow free multiplication for the size of a memory allocation but these implementations are not NUMA-aware. Likewise we have kmalloc_node() which is a NUMA-aware version of kmalloc() but the implementation is not aware of any possible overflows in eventual size calculations. Introduce a combination of the two above cases to have a NUMA-node aware version of kmalloc_array() and kcalloc().

Linux kernel ============ This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file. Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
