PATCH 1/1 IB/rdmavt: Use struct_size() helper

Make use of the struct_size() helper instead of an open-coded version in order to avoid any potential type mistakes, in particular in the context in which this code is being used.

So, replace the following form:

sizeof(struct rvt_sge) * init_attr->cap.max_send_sge + sizeof(struct rvt_swqe)

with:

struct_size(swq, sg_list, init_attr->cap.max_send_sge)

and so on...

Also, notice that variable size is unnecessary, hence it is removed.

This code was detected with the help of Coccinelle.

Looks correct, I don't think this makes the code easier to read though. The macro name "struct_size" is misleading to me. Maybe that's just me, and in any case...

It is struct_size because it computes the full size of a struct ending in a variable length array with N items.

The previous code was wonky because it assumes that struct rvt_swqe is the underlying type of sg_list, while the new version gets the type information automatically.

Applied to for-next, thanks
