Make use of the struct_size() helper instead of an open-coded version, in order to avoid any potential type mistakes or integer overflows that, in the worst scenario, could lead to heap overflows. Also, address the following sparse warnings: drivers/hid/hid-google-hammer.c:61:23: warning: using sizeof on a flexible structure Link: https://github.com/KSPP/linux/issues/174 Signed-off-by: Gustavo A.
