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 foo {
int stuff;
struct boo entry[];
};
size = sizeof(struct foo) + count * sizeof(struct boo);
instance = alloc(size, GFP_KERNEL);
Instead of leaving these open-coded and prone to type mistakes, we can
now use the new struct_size() helper:
size = struct_size(instance, entry, count);
This code was detected with the help of Coccinelle.

Thanks Gustavo, I will queue this up.

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 and, audited and
fixed manually.
