i40e/i40e_virtchnl_pf: Use struct_size() in kzalloc() One of the more common cases of allocation size calculations is finding the size of a structure that has a zero-sized array at the end, along with memory for some number of elements for that array. For example: struct virtchnl_iwarp_qvlist_info { ... struct virtchnl_iwarp_qv_info qv_info[1]; }; size = sizeof(struct virtchnl_iwarp_qvlist_info) + (sizeof(struct virtchnl_iwarp_qv_info) * count; instance = kzalloc(size, GFP_KERNEL); and struct virtchnl_vf_resource { ... struct virtchnl_vsi_resource vsi_res[1]; }; size = sizeof(struct virtchnl_vf_resource) + sizeof(struct virtchnl_vsi_resource) * count; instance = kzalloc(size, GFP_KERNEL); Instead of leaving these open-coded and prone to type mistakes, we can now use the new struct_size() helper: instance = kzalloc(struct_size(instance, qv_info, count), GFP_KERNEL); and instance = kzalloc(struct_size(instance, vsi_res, count), GFP_KERNEL); Notice that, in the first case above, variable size is not necessary, hence it is removed.
