Allocate one extra virtio_device_id as null terminator, otherwise vdpa_mgmtdev_get_classes() may iterate multiple times and visit undefined memory.

Only one additional entry is needed for null termination. No need to allocate 2x memory. Even though you have only two entries. Reading code as +1 is better to understand null termination.
Sorry, I don't get your point here, vp_vdpa_probe only needs one struct virtio_device_id, plus one null termination, "sizeof(struct virtio_device_id) * 2 " should be enough here?
And for array, you should use, array = kcalloc(2, sizeof(mdev_id), GFP_KERNEL);
OK, thanks for your suggestion.
