[PATCH] stm class: Use struct_size()

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

 



Use struct_size() instead of hand-writing it, when allocating a structure
with a flex array.

This is less verbose, more robust and more informative.

It will also be helpful if the __counted_by() annotation is added with a
Coccinelle script such as:
