looks like there are similar cases of struct_size -> u32 conversions in
other places:

struct snd_sof_control {
u32 size; /* cdata size */

ipc3-topology.c: scontrol->size = struct_size(cdata, chanv,
scontrol->num_channels);
ipc3-topology.c: scontrol->size = struct_size(cdata, chanv,
scontrol->num_channels);
ipc4-topology.c: scontrol->size = struct_size(control_data,
chanv, scontrol->num_channels);

not sure how much of an issue this really is though?
