[PATCH v4] crypto: Use struct_size() helper with kmalloc()

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

 



Make use of struct_size() helper for structures containing flexible array
member instead of sizeof() which prevents potential issues, as well as
increase readability.
