Re: [patch] [SCSI] mpt3sas: cut and paste bug storing trigger mpi

From: Rolf Eike Beer

ioc->diag_trigger_mpi is an SL_WH_MPI_TRIGGERS_T struct.

There is a cut and paste error here and SL_WH_EVENT_TRIGGERS_T is used
instead of SL_WH_MPI_TRIGGERS_T. Since the SL_WH_EVENT_TRIGGERS_T is
smaller than SL_WH_MPI_TRIGGERS_T, it means we only clear part of the
buffer.

Only needed in linux-next.

This is a static analysis patch. Even though I'm pretty sure it's
correct, I'm not able to test it.

ioc->diag_trigger_mpi.ValidEntries = NUM_VALID_ENTRIES;

Then just use sizeof(ioc->diag_trigger_mpi), then it's irrelevant how that type is ever called.
