dm ioctl: use struct_size() helper in retrieve_deps()
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 dm_target_deps {
...
__u64 dev[0]; /* out */
};
Make use of the struct_size() helper instead of an open-coded version
in order to avoid any potential type mistakes.
This code was detected with the help of Coccinelle.
