Subject: [PATCH 1/2] efistub/x86: Use struct_size() for setup_data sizes
Date: Wed, 16 Sep 2026 00:03:23 +0200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260915220324.103216-3-blum@kernel.org> (raw)
Use struct_size(), which provides additional compile-time checks for
structures with flexible array members (e.g., __must_be_array()), to
calculate struct setup_data sizes.
