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(struct rvt_sge) * init_attr->cap.max_send_sge + sizeof(struct rvt_swqe) with: struct_size(swq, sg_list, init_attr->cap.max_send_sge) and so on... Also, notice that variable size is unnecessary, hence it is removed. This code was detected with the help of Coccinelle. Signed-off-by: Gustavo A. R.
