[lvc-project] [PATCH net-next v2] ice: Adjust over allocation of memory in ice_sched_add_root_node() and ice_sched_add_node()

In ice_sched_add_root_node() and ice_sched_add_node() there are calls to
devm_kcalloc() in order to allocate memory for array of pointers to
'ice_sched_node' structure. But in this calls there are 'sizeof(*root)'
instead of 'sizeof(root)' and 'sizeof(*node)' instead of 'sizeof(node)'.
So memory is allocated for structures instead pointers. This lead to
significant over allocation of memory.
Adjust over allocation of memory by correcting devm_kcalloc() parameters.
