nhi->rx_rings does not have type as struct tb_ring *, as it is a
double pointer so the elements of the array should have pointer type,
not structure type.
The Coccinelle semantic patch that makes this change is as follows:
// <smpl>
@disable sizeof_type_expr@
type T;
T **x;
@@
x =
<+...sizeof(
- T
+ *x
)...+>
// </smpl>

It could use devm_kcalloc here too.
btw: are there many false positives with the cocci test?

Any reason you didn't cc: the developers in charge of this code so they
see it and can pick it up? Otherwise it's just going to float around on
the mailing list, listless and sad.

They don't seem to be in the MAINTAINERS file.
Himangi, you would see some people if you drop the --nogit-fallback
argument from get_maintainers. Maybe that is too strict.

Ah, good point. Andreas, care to send me a patch adding yourself to the
MAINTAINERS file for drivers/thunderbolt/* so that you will get patches
like this?
thanks,
