Replace kmalloc with kmalloc array in drm/gud/gud_pipe.c since the
calculation inside kmalloc is dynamic "width * height" and added
u_char as the size of each element.

u_char is more or less guaranteed to be 8 bit. So what's the point?

There's a potential overflow in width * height. If anything, you want to call kmalloc_array(height, width).
