    wimax/i2400m: use struct_size() helper · 13644be2
    Gustavo A. R. Silva authored
    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 foo {
        int stuff;
        void *entry[];
    };
    
    size = sizeof(struct foo) + count * sizeof(void *);
    instance = alloc(size, GFP_KERNEL);
    
    Instead of leaving these open-coded and prone to type mistakes, we can
    now use the new struct_size() helper:
    
    size = struct_size(instance, entry, count);
    
    This code was detected with the help of Coccinelle.
