ASoC: Intel: avs: Replace devm_kzalloc() with

Merge series from Ethan Carter Edwards <ethan@ethancedwards.com>:

Open coded arithmetic in allocator arguments is discouraged. Helper
functions like kcalloc or, in this case, devm_kcalloc are preferred. Not
only for readability purposes but safety purposes.

The changes move `devm_kzalloc(dev, sizeof(var) * n, GFP_KERNEL)` to
the helper function `devm_kcalloc(dev, n, sizeof(var), GFP_KERNEL)`.

Here is a series of four patches within the Intel/avs drivers that make
these changes. They are all compile tested only but should have no
effect on runtime behaviour.
