Subject: [PATCH][next] comedi: das16: Use struct_size() helper in comedi_alloc_spriv()
Date: Tue, 25 Jan 2022 17:25:25 -0600	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20220125232525.GA80228@embeddedor> (raw)

Make use of the struct_size() helper instead of an open-coded version,
in order to avoid any potential type mistakes or integer overflows that,
in the worst scenario, could lead to heap overflows.

Also, address the following sparse warnings:
drivers/comedi/drivers/das16.c:964:45: warning: using sizeof on a flexible structure
drivers/comedi/drivers/das16.c:998:45: warning: using sizeof on a flexible structure
