struct dom0_vga_console_info has been extended in the past, and it may be extended again. The use in PV Dom0's start info already covers for that by supplying the size of the provided data. For the recently introduced platform-op size needs providing similarly. Go the easiest available route and simply supply size via the hypercall return value. While there also add a build-time check that possibly future growth of the struct won't affect xen_platform_op_t's size. Fixes: 4dd160583c79 ("x86/platform: introduce hypercall to get initial video console settings") Signed-off-by: Jan Beulich <jbeulich@suse.com> --- Noticed while trying to actually use the new hypercall in Linux.
