Subject: Re: [PATCH v2 2/2] VMCI: Fix memcpy() run-time warning in dg_dispatch_as_host()

Hello, I was also working on solving this problem
https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/20240110104042.31865-1-kovalev@altlinux.org/T/#t.

Please note that there are 2 such places in the code, and by analogy with your
version of the changes, including changes in the approach to calculating the
size of the allocated memory, additional changes on top of your changes will
be as follows:
