xen/grant-table: Use kmalloc_array() in arch_gnttab_valloc()
* A multiplication for the size determination of a memory allocation
indicated that an array data structure should be processed.
Thus reuse the corresponding function "kmalloc_array".
This issue was detected by using the Coccinelle software.
* Replace the specification of a data type by a pointer dereference
to make the corresponding size determination a bit safer according to
the Linux coding style convention.
