Subject: [PATCH v3 1/2] tty: rfcomm: prefer struct_size over open coded arithmetic

This is an effort to get rid of all multiplications from allocation
functions in order to prevent integer overflows [1][2].

As the "dl" variable is a pointer to "struct rfcomm_dev_list_req" and
this structure ends in a flexible array:

struct rfcomm_dev_list_req {
	[...]
	struct   rfcomm_dev_info dev_info[];
};

the preferred way in the kernel is to use the struct_size() helper to
do the arithmetic instead of the calculation "size + count * size" in
the kzalloc() and copy_to_user() functions.

At the same time, prepare for the coming implementation by GCC and Clang
of the __counted_by attribute. Flexible array members annotated with
__counted_by can have their accesses bounds-checked at run-time via
CONFIG_UBSAN_BOUNDS (for array indexing) and CONFIG_FORTIFY_SOURCE (for
strcpy/memcpy-family functions).

In this case, it is important to note that the logic needs a little
refactoring to ensure that the "dev_num" member is initialized before
the first access to the flex array. Specifically, add the assignment
before the list_for_each_entry() loop.

Also remove the "size" variable as it is no longer needed.

This way, the code is more readable and safer.

This code was detected with the help of Coccinelle, and audited and
modified manually.
