This is even better:

diff --git a/drivers/misc/mei/hdcp/mei_hdcp.c b/drivers/misc/mei/hdcp/mei_hdcp.c

verify_mprime_in.k = cpu_to_be16(data->k);

byte = mei_cldev_send(cldev, (u8 *)&verify_mprime_in,

if (byte < 0) {
dev_dbg(dev, "mei_cldev_send failed. %zd\n", byte);
return byte;

the flex_array_size() is a new helper that was designed for this situations. :)
It calculates the size of a flexible array member within an enclosing structure,
which is exactly the case.
