PATCH 1/1 IB/qib: 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(*pkt) + sizeof(pkt->addr[0])*n

with:

struct_size(pkt, addr, n)

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

This code was detected with the help of Coccinelle.

Again, same minor objection but correct patch none the less.
