Enabling KASAN and running some iperf tests raises some memory issues with
vmm_table:

BUG: KASAN: slab-out-of-bounds in wilc_wlan_handle_txq+0x6ac/0xdb4
Write of size 4 at addr c3a61540 by task wlan0-tx/95

KASAN detects that we are writing data beyond range allocated to vmm_table.
There is indeed a mismatch between the size passed to allocator in
wilc_wlan_init, and the range of possible indexes used later: allocation
size is missing a multiplication by sizeof(u32)

Fixes: 40b717bfcefa ("wifi: wilc1000: fix DMA on stack objects")

Changes in v3:
- Use kcalloc instead of kzalloc
- Link to v2: https://lore.kernel.org/r/20231016-wilc1000_tx_oops-v2-1-8d1982a29ef1@bootlin.com

Changes in v2:
- keep dedicated dynamic allocation for vmm_table
- Link to v1: https://lore.kernel.org/r/20231013-wilc1000_tx_oops-v1-1-3761beb9524d@bootlin.com
