Hi Rosen,

along with Luca's comments, I will ask you for one more change:

...

>  	/* Protects aliases and use_mask */
>  	spinlock_t lock;
> -	u16 *aliases;
>  	unsigned long *use_mask;
> +	u16 aliases[] __counted_by(size);

...

> -	alias_pool = kzalloc_obj(*alias_pool);
> +	alias_pool = kzalloc_flex(*alias_pool, aliases, num_aliases);
>  	if (!alias_pool)
>  		return ERR_PTR(-ENOMEM);
>  
>  	alias_pool->size = num_aliases;

this line is not needed anymore because kzalloc_flex will resolve
to alias_pool size and will set it tu num_aliases.

We can remove it.

Thanks,
Andi
