PATCH 1/1 drm/rockchip: Use struct_size() in devm_kzalloc()

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;
        void *entry[];
};

instance = devm_kzalloc(dev, sizeof(struct foo) + sizeof(void *) * count, GFP_KERNEL);

or, like in this particular case:

size = sizeof(struct foo) + sizeof(void *) * count; instance = devm_kzalloc(dev, size, GFP_KERNEL);

Instead of leaving these open-coded and prone to type mistakes, we can now use the new struct_size() helper:

instance = devm_kzalloc(dev, struct_size(instance, entry, count), GFP_KERNEL);

This issue was detected with the help of Coccinelle.
