[PATCH 1/3] virtio_pci: Use kcalloc() in vp_request_msix_vectors()

A multiplication for the size determination of a memory allocation
indicated that an array data structure should be processed.
Thus reuse the corresponding function "kcalloc".

This issue was detected by using the Coccinelle software.
