Make use of the struct_size() helper instead of an open-coded version,
in order to avoid any potential type mistakes or integer overflows
that, in the worst scenario, could lead to heap overflows.

Also, address the following sparse warnings:

This patch is a bit more useful than the other one, as the validation of
->sig_size happens in a different function.  But it still happens.  So please
don't claim that this patch is fixing a heap overflow.  People use commit
messages to determine whether patches are fixing something, and how important
the fix is.  So if it's a cleanup (not a bug fix), write that.
