dmaengine: stm32-dma: Use struct_size() helper
One of the more common cases of allocation size calculations is finding the size of a structure that has a zero-sized array at the end, along with memory for some number of elements for that array. For example: struct stm32_dma_desc { ... struct stm32_dma_sg_req sg_req[]; }; Make use of the struct_size() helper instead of an open-coded version in order to avoid any potential type mistakes. So, replace the following function: static struct stm32_dma_desc *stm32_dma_alloc_desc(u32 num_sgs) { return kzalloc(sizeof(struct stm32_dma_desc) + sizeof(struct stm32_dma_sg_req) * num_sgs, GFP_NOWAIT); } with: kzalloc(struct_size(desc, sg_req, num_sgs), GFP_NOWAIT) This code was detected with the help of Coccinelle.
