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 foo {
int stuff;
struct boo entry[];
};
size = sizeof(struct foo) + count * sizeof(struct boo);
instance = kzalloc(size, GFP_KERNEL)
Instead of leaving these open-coded and prone to type mistakes, we can
now use the new struct_size() helper:
size = struct_size(instance, entry, count);
or
instance = kzalloc(struct_size(instance, entry, count), GFP_KERNEL)
Based on the above, replace qtnf_cmd_acl_data_size() with the
new struct_size() helper.
