ALSA: usx2y: Prefer struct_size over open coded arithmetic
As noted in the "Deprecated Interfaces, Language Features, Attributes, and Conventions" documentation [1], size calculations (especially multiplication) should not be performed in memory allocator (or similar) function arguments due to the risk of them overflowing. This could lead to values wrapping around and a smaller allocation being made than the caller was expecting. Using those allocations could lead to linear overflows of heap memory and other misbehaviors. In this case this is not actually dynamic size: all the operands involved in the calculation are constant values. However it is better to refactor this anyway, just to keep the open-coded math idiom out of code. So, use the struct_size() helper to do the arithmetic instead of the argument "size + size * count" in the kzalloc() function. Also, take the opportunity to refactor the declaration variables to make it more easy to read.
