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(*pkt) + sizeof(pkt->addr[0])*n with: struct_size(pkt, addr, n) 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.
