As noted in the kernel documentation [1], open-coded multiplication in allocator arguments is discouraged because it can lead to integer overflow. Use kcalloc() to gain built-in overflow protection, making memory allocation safer when calculating allocation size compared to explicit multiplication. Similarly, use size_add() instead of explicit addition for 'uobj_chunk_num + sobj_chunk_num'.
