[PATCH 1/2][next] mm: memcontrol: Use flex_array_size() helper in memcpy()

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

 



Make use of the flex_array_size() helper to calculate the size of a
flexible array member within an enclosing structure.

This helper offers defense-in-depth against potential integer
overflows, while at the same time makes it explicitly clear that
we are dealing with a flexible array member.

Also, remove unnecessary braces.
