lru_cache: use correct type in sizeof for allocation
This has no actual effect, since sizeof(struct hlist_head) == sizeof(struct hlist_head *), but it's still the wrong type to use. The semantic match that finds this problem: // <smpl> @@ type T; identifier x; @@ T *x; ... * x = kzalloc(... * sizeof(T*) * ..., ...); // </smpl> [akpm@linux-foundation.org: use kcalloc()] Signed-off-by: Ilia Mirkin <imirkin@alum.mit.edu> Acked-by: Lars Ellenberg <lars@linbit.com> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@linux-foundation.org> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>
