include/linux/overflow.h includes helper macros intended for calculating sizes of allocations. These macros prevent accidental overflow by saturating at SIZE_MAX. In general when calculating such sizes use of the macros is preferred. Add a semantic patch which can detect code patterns which can be replaced by struct_size. Note that I set the confidence to medium because this patch doesn't make an attempt to ensure that the relevant array is actually a flexible array. The struct_size macro does specifically require a flexible array. In many cases the detected code could be refactored to a flexible array, but this is not always possible (such as if there are multiple over-allocations).
