Subject: [PATCH -next] mm/memcg: Use struct_size() helper in kzalloc()
Date: Thu, 16 Dec 2021 10:20:24 +0800 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20211216022024.127375-1-wangweiyang2@huawei.com> (raw)
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.
