[PATCH v2 2/3] firewire: use struct_size over open coded arithmetic

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



From: "Minghao Chi (CGEL ZTE)" <chi.minghao@xxxxxxxxxx>

Replace zero-length array with flexible-array member and make use
of the struct_size() helper in kmalloc(). For example:

struct fw_request {
    ...
    u32 data[];
}

Make use of the struct_size() helper instead of an open-coded version
in order to avoid any potential type mistakes.

(Revised by Takashi Sakamoto to fix the value of third argument.)
