FYI, I have an RFC series out to simplify assertions a bit more.
https://lore.kernel.org/linux-kselftest/20220525154442.1438081-4-dlatypov@xxxxxxxxxx/
in particular eliminates these INIT_STRUCT macros.

That series would break the Rust for Linux one, so I've been waiting
to see how that plays out.
At this point, this series might go in before my RFC one, so I'll
likely rebase on top of yours.

But if not, I can provide a diff to help rebase this series on top of
mine at that time.

nit: "determinated" isn't a word, though it would make sense as one.
Perhaps instead:
to the specified size
to the specified @size
to a predetermined size

As noted on patch 2/3, this is very subtle.
The fact it's in "bytes" and not "array elements" can mix people up
who would likely assume ARRAY_SIZE() would be appropriate.

Should we perhaps internally do
size_bytes = (size) * sizeof((left)[0])
so users can just deal with # of array elements and not bytes?

As noted on the cover letter, I think we probably want to have our
output make it easier to spot the differing bytes if possible.
It's sufficiently annoying that I hadn't bothered to do it, so perhaps
we can keep it simple like this for now and revisit it later.
