Use kcalloc() when calculating the parser table allocation size so an
overflow in the firmware-provided item dimensions is detected before
allocation.
v2: Use kcalloc() instead of kzalloc(array_size()) as suggested by
Alexander Lobakin <aleksander.lobakin@xxxxxxxxx>

v1->v2:
- Remove redundant include of <linux/overflow.h>
- Use kcalloc() instead of kzalloc(array_size()) as suggested by
Alexander Lobakin <aleksander.lobakin@xxxxxxxxx>
