modules/kmod: Allocate argv with kmalloc_array()
In preparation for converting the kmalloc family of allocators to the
type-aware kmalloc_obj family, we need to make sure that the returned
type from the allocation matches the type of the variable being
assigned. (The kmalloc family returns "void *", which can be implicitly
cast to any pointer type.)
argv holds 5 pointers, but the size was taken from the array type
"char *[5]", which would make the allocation type a pointer to that
array rather than the "char **" being assigned. Allocate 5 entries of
the target's type instead. The resulting allocation size is the same.
Build tested ARCH=x86_64 allmodconfig with GCC 16.2.0:
