Make use of the struct_size() helper instead of an open-coded version,
in order to avoid any potential type mistakes or integer overflows that,
in the worst scenario, could lead to heap overflows.

Also, address the following sparse warnings:
drivers/net/ethernet/netronome/nfp/flower/tunnel_conf.c:359:25: warning: using sizeof on a flexible structure
