Update the code to use a flexible array member instead of a pointer in structure i2c_mux_pinctrl and use the struct_size() helper. Also, make use of the struct_size() helper instead of an open-coded version in order to avoid any potential type mistakes, in particular in the context in which this code is being used. So, replace the following form: sizeof(*mux) + num_names * sizeof(*mux->states) with: struct_size(mux, states, num_names) This code was detected with the help of Coccinelle. Signed-off-by: Gustavo A.
