Subject: kexec: avoid calculating array size twice
Date: Thu, 25 May 2023 16:26:25 +0200
Avoid calculating array size twice in kexec_purgatory_setup_sechdrs().
Once using array_size(), and once open-coded.
Flagged by Coccinelle:
.../kexec_file.c:881:8-25: WARNING: array_size is already used (line 877) to compute the same size
No functional change intended.
Compile tested only.
