Subject: [PATCH][next] net: sched: cls_u32: Fix allocation in u32_init()
Date: Thu, 17 Aug 2023 09:58:53 -0600	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <ZN5DvRyq6JNz20l1@work> (raw)

Replace struct_size() with sizeof(), and avoid allocating 8 too many
bytes.

The following difference in binary output is expected and reflects the
desired change:
