Subject: [PATCH v2] btrfs: Use sizeof directly instead of a constant variable
Date: Tue, 13 Mar 2018 10:26:06 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1520929566-4155-1-git-send-email-nborisov@suse.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <1520873548-26667-1-git-send-email-nborisov@suse.com>

The kernel would like to have all stack VLA usage removed[1].
Unfortunately using an integer constant variable as the size of an
array is still considered a VLA. Instead let's use directly sizeof(var)
which removes the VLA usage. Use the occasion to remove csum_size
altogether and use sizeof() also for the size passed to memcmp

V2: 
 * Use sizeof(result) in memcmp to make it more clear what we are comparing.
