Huuh, that's really tricky. Can you just do "normal" conditions as
Larry suggested, please?

Sorry? I absolutely see nothing tricky there. Do you think this would look
"less tricky" to you:

switch (dev->fw.hdr_format) {
case B43_FW_HDR_410:
case B43_FW_HDR_351:
rxhdr_size = offsetof(struct b43_rxhdr_fw4,
format_351) +
sizeof(rxhdr_size->format_351);
break;
case B43_FW_HDR_598:
rxhdr_size = sizeof(*rxhdr);
break;
}


How about this?
