Subject[PATCH] relay: Fix type mismatch when allocating memory in relay_create_buf()
Date
The 'padding' field of the 'rchan_buf' structure is an array of 'size_t'
elements, but the memory is allocated for an array of 'size_t *' elements.

Found by Linux Verification Center (linuxtesting.org) with SVACE.

Fixes: b86ff981a825 ("[PATCH] relay: migrate from relayfs to a generic relay API")
