struct_size() checks for overflow, but assigning its result to just a u32 may still overflow after a successful check.
Use a size_t instead in order to be cleaner.

Based on analysis from Dan Carpenter on another patch (see [1]).
looks like there are similar cases of struct_size -> u32 conversions in other places:
struct snd_sof_control { u32 size; /* cdata size */
ipc3-topology.c: scontrol->size = struct_size(cdata, chanv, scontrol->num_channels); ipc3-topology.c: scontrol->size = struct_size(cdata, chanv, scontrol->num_channels); ipc4-topology.c: scontrol->size = struct_size(control_data, chanv, scontrol->num_channels);
My coccinelle script does not handle such cases.
not sure how much of an issue this really is though?
I agree that in practice it should be safe as-is, but it can't hurt :). I don't know this code well, but should [2] be part of the call chain, it is obvious that it CAN'T overflow.
I checked for places where such pattern occurs after Dan's comment on another patch. I'll see if I find better candidates.
