Gustavo A. R. Silva 2bcda8386a kernel: module: Use struct_size() helper
commit 8d1b73dd25 upstream.

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 module_sect_attrs {
	...
        struct module_sect_attr attrs[0];
};

Make use of the struct_size() helper instead of an open-coded version
in order to avoid any potential type mistakes.

So, replace the following form:

sizeof(*sect_attrs) + nloaded * sizeof(sect_attrs->attrs[0]

with:

struct_size(sect_attrs, attrs, nloaded)

This code was detected with the help of Coccinelle.
