Ah.  Sorry, I didn't have enough context.  But could you instead use
sizeof(*name) instead of (char *) (it's the standard kernel style and
not just my opinion):

	name = devm_kcalloc(sma1303->dev, ARRAY_SIZE(sma1303_snd_controls),
			    sizeof(*name), GFP_KERNEL);

Also please declare name as char instead of unsigned char.
Also there needs to be some error checking for if the allocation fails.

This driver is going to need quite a bit of cleanup.  :/
