I have instances where I want to use drm_malloc_ab() but with a custom

So refactor my usage into drm_malloc_gfp().

I know Dave G. has some fancy code to detect when the size parameter is
not constant, but one thing I noticed was that gcc would uninline this
function and we would lose the constant folding. Is there anything we
can do to convince gcc to avoid a div here (other than pure macro)?
Don't know, apart from maybe _always_inline if it is not considered too big.
But I wanted to ask, why it is interesting to allow size == 0 ? Why not:
if (size == 0 || nmemb > SIZE_MAX / size)
return NULL;
?
