Make use of struct_size() helper for structures containing flexible array
member instead of sizeof() which prevents potential issues, as well as
increase readability.

suggestion. Added Kees' review-by.
v3:
    Update commit message according to Gustavo's review.
v2:
    Use size_add() helper following Kees Cook's suggestion.
