[PATCH][next] iio: hw_consumer: Use struct_size() helper in kzalloc()
From: Gustavo A. R. Silva
Date: Thu Jan 20 2022 - 17:46:13 EST
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/iio/buffer/industrialio-hw-consumer.c:63:23: warning: using sizeof on a flexible structure
