[alsa-devel] [PATCH] ALSA: echoaudio: Fix memory allocation
'commpage_bak' is allocated with 'sizeof(struct echoaudio)' bytes. We then copy 'sizeof(struct comm_page)' bytes in it. On my system, smatch complains because one is 2960 and the other is 3072.
This would result in memory corruption or a oops.

perhaps you can use here kmemdup() ?
