Erick Archer 13528e1d8f Input: ff-core - prefer struct_size over open coded arithmetic
[ Upstream commit a08b8f8557ad88ffdff8905e5da972afe52e3307 ]

This is an effort to get rid of all multiplications from allocation
functions in order to prevent integer overflows [1][2].

As the "ff" variable is a pointer to "struct ff_device" and this
structure ends in a flexible array:

struct ff_device {
	[...]
	struct file *effect_owners[] __counted_by(max_effects);
};

the preferred way in the kernel is to use the struct_size() helper to
do the arithmetic instead of the calculation "size + count * size" in
the kzalloc() function.

The struct_size() helper returns SIZE_MAX on overflow. So, refactor
the comparison to take advantage of this.

This way, the code is more readable and safer.

This code was detected with the help of Coccinelle, and audited and
modified manually.

README

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
