From 459cc69fa4c17caf21de596693d8a07170820a58 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Leon Romanovsky Date: Wed, 30 Jan 2019 12:49:11 +0200 Subject: RDMA: Provide safe ib_alloc_device() function All callers to ib_alloc_device() provide a larger size than struct ib_device and rely on the fact that struct ib_device is embedded in their driver specific structure as the first member. Provide a safer variant of ib_alloc_device() that checks and enforces this approach to make sure the drivers are using it right.
