One of the more common cases of allocation size calculations is finding
the size of a structure that has a zero-sized array at the end, along
with memory for some number of elements for that array. For example:
struct foo {
int stuff;
void *entry[];
};
instance = kmalloc(sizeof(struct foo) + sizeof(void *) * count, GFP_KERNEL);
Instead of leaving these open-coded and prone to type mistakes, we can
now use the new struct_size() helper:
instance = kmalloc(struct_size(instance, entry, count), GFP_KERNEL);
This patch makes the changes for kmalloc()-family (and kvmalloc()-family)
uses. It was done via automatic conversion with manual review for the
"CHECKME" non-standard cases noted below, using the following Coccinelle
script:
// pkey_cache = kmalloc(sizeof *pkey_cache + tprops->pkey_tbl_len *
// sizeof *pkey_cache->table, GFP_KERNEL);

identifier alloc =~ "kmalloc|kzalloc|kvmalloc|kvzalloc";
expression GFP;
identifier VAR, ELEMENT;
expression COUNT;

- alloc(sizeof(*VAR) + COUNT * sizeof(*VAR->ELEMENT), GFP)

Add hwspinlock driver for U8500's Hsem hardware.
At this point only HSem's protocol 1 is used (i.e. no interrupts).
