I'm not sure I understand.  On 32-bit systems a size_t and an unsigned
int are the same size.  Did you mean to say 64-bit?

Declaring sizes as u32 leads to integer overflows like this one.  If
you look at integer overflows with security implications there is a
5 to 1 ratio of bugs that only affect 32-bit vs bugs that affect
everything because it's just so much easier to overflow a 32-bit size.

This is so ugly...  :/  I'd prefer to just do open code the check at
that point.

static inline int xfrm_replay_state_esn_len(struct xfrm_replay_state_esn *replay_esn)
{
	if (replay_esn->bmp_len > (INT_MAX - sizeof(*replay_esn)) / sizeof(__u32))
		return -EINVAL;
	return sizeof(*replay_esn) + replay_esn->bmp_len * sizeof(__u32);
}
