Now that it exists, use it instead of doing the multiplication manually.

Hmm. I've stared at the users of this for a bit, and it's not actually obvious
that it's being used as an array of u32.  The only typed user of this is as
the 2nd parameter of  
tty_insert_flip_string() which is an unsigned char *

I wonder if that sizeof(u32) isn't a 'correct' description of where the 4 is coming
from even if it has the right value?  Perhaps the fifo depth is just a multiple of 4?

Ok that makes sense to me. I can add a comment instead this patch to
change this one.
