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 code of the following form: sizeof(*ev) + ev->num_neighbors * sizeof(struct wmi_neighbor_info) with: struct_size(ev, neighbor, ev->num_neighbors) This code was detected with the help of Coccinelle.
