I did that in a few other places where the equalities weren't very clear. For example, change it to: + BUILD_BUG_ON(sizeof(evt_struct->iu.srp) != SRP_MAX_IU_LEN); + memset(&evt_struct->iu.srp, 0x00, sizeof(evt_struct->iu.srp)); srp_cmd = &evt_struct->iu.srp.cmd; - memset(srp_cmd, 0x00, SRP_MAX_IU_LEN); > > For good measure I copied Tyrel and Brian. > > Acked-by: Martin K.
