Dan reported that smatch reports wrong size check and after analysis it
is confirmed that we are comparing wrong value: pointer size instead of
array size. However the check itself is problematic as in UAPI header
there are two fields:
struct snd_soc_tplg_enum_control {
(...)
char texts[SND_SOC_TPLG_NUM_TEXTS][SNDRV_CTL_ELEM_ID_NAME_MAXLEN];
__le32 values[SND_SOC_TPLG_NUM_TEXTS * SNDRV_CTL_ELEM_ID_NAME_MAXLEN / 4];
the texts field is for names and the values one for values assigned to
those named fields, after analysis it becomes clear that there is quite
a lot overhead values than we may possibly name. So instead of changing
check to ARRAY_SIZE(ec->values), as it was first suggested, use
hardcoded value of SND_SOC_TPLG_NUM_TEXTS.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
