[PATCH v2 2/2] powerpc/pseries/ras: Use struct_size() to simplify fwnmi_get_errinfo()

From: Thorsten Blum <thorsten.blum@linux.dev>
Date: 2026-06-27 10:48:26
Also in: lkml
Subsystem: linux for powerpc (32-bit and 64-bit), the rest · Maintainers: Madhavan Srinivasan, Michael Ellerman, Linus Torvalds

Now that struct rtas_error_log uses a flexible array member for the
extended log buffer, use struct_size() to calculate the total RTAS error
log size and avoid using the hard-coded header size of 8 bytes.

Signed-off-by: Thorsten Blum <thorsten.blum@linux.dev>

Changes in v2:
- memcpy_and_pad() cannot be used in real mode; use memset() + memcpy()
- v1: https://lore.kernel.org/r/20260626184750.166642-4-thorsten.blum@linux.dev/ (local)
