Use sizeof(*data) instead.

Ouch, thanks for catching that!

But the clk_hw_onecell_data actually has a variable size array at the
end and as you can see further down I store 2 items in that array.

So that sizeof should be struct_size(data, hws, 2)

Would you be willing to update your patch with that?


OK, I will commit another patch. Do you mind I add a "Suggested-by" tag of your name in the new patch?
