kernel: module: Use struct_size() helper
One of the more common cases of allocation size calculations is finding the size of a structure that has a zero-sized array at the end, along with memory for some number of elements for that array. For example: struct module_sect_attrs { ... struct module_sect_attr attrs[0]; }; Make use of the struct_size() helper instead of an open-coded version in order to avoid any potential type mistakes. So, replace the following form: sizeof(*sect_attrs) + nloaded * sizeof(sect_attrs->attrs[0] with: struct_size(sect_attrs, attrs, nloaded) This code was detected with the help of Coccinelle.
