Subject: [PATCH][next] block: bio: Use struct_size() in kmalloc()
Date: Fri, 19 Jun 2020 19:49:49 -0500 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20200620004949.GA30923@embeddedor> (raw)
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.
