Subject: [PATCH][next] ALSA: vmaster: Use flex_array_size() helper in memcpy()
Date: Wed, 29 Jul 2020 17:18:29 -0500	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20200729221829.GA10623@embeddedor> (raw)

Make use of the flex_array_size() helper to calculate the size of a
flexible array member within an enclosing structure.

This helper offers defense-in-depth against potential integer overflows
and makes it explicitly clear that we are dealing with a flexible array
member.
