I don't think the fix for this is to add 1 byte, if any, it seems
to be sizeof(*data->streams), or sizeof(struct hdcp2_streamid_type)
what needs to be added.

But it might be better to code something like this, instead:

diff --git a/drivers/misc/mei/hdcp/mei_hdcp.c b/drivers/misc/mei/hdcp/mei_hdcp.c
index e6c3dc595617..7fe63c915548 100644
--- a/drivers/misc/mei/hdcp/mei_hdcp.c
+++ b/drivers/misc/mei/hdcp/mei_hdcp.c
@@ -572,12 +572,12 @@ static int mei_hdcp_verify_mprime(struct device *dev,
HDCP_2_2_MPRIME_LEN);
drm_hdcp_cpu_to_be24(verify_mprime_in.seq_num_m, data->seq_num_m);
memcpy(verify_mprime_in.streams, data->streams,
- (data->k * sizeof(struct hdcp2_streamid_type)));
+ (data->k * sizeof(*data->streams)));

verify_mprime_in.k = cpu_to_be16(data->k);

byte = mei_cldev_send(cldev, (u8 *)&verify_mprime_in,
- sizeof(verify_mprime_in));
+ struct_size(&verify_mprime_in, streams, data->k));
if (byte < 0) {
dev_dbg(dev, "mei_cldev_send failed. %zd\n", byte);
return byte;

struct_size(&verify_mprime_in, streams, data->k) will give us the size, in bytes,
of struct wired_cmd_repeater_auth_stream_req_in plus the size in bytes for
the streams[] flexible-array, which is determined by struct hdcp2_streamid_type and
data->k.

What do you think?

Great. I'm glad we got to the root cause of this issue. :)
