cxgb4: sched: use struct_size() in kvzalloc()

One of the more common cases of allocation size calculations is
finding the size of a structure that has a zero-sized array at
the end, along with memory for some number of elements for that
array. For example:

struct foo {
    int stuff;
    struct boo entry[];
};

instance = kvzalloc(sizeof(struct foo) + count * sizeof(struct boo), GFP_KERNEL);

Instead of leaving these open-coded and prone to type mistakes, we can now
use the new struct_size() helper:

instance = kvzalloc(struct_size(instance, entry, count), GFP_KERNEL);

This code was detected with the help of Coccinelle.
