Yeah, I had the same fun. Maybe I should add a BUILD_BUG_ON() here to
help illustrate the relationship? I did that in a few other places where
the equalities weren't very clear.

For example, change it to:

+ BUILD_BUG_ON(sizeof(evt_struct->iu.srp) != SRP_MAX_IU_LEN);
+ memset(&evt_struct->iu.srp, 0x00, sizeof(evt_struct->iu.srp));
srp_cmd = &evt_struct->iu.srp.cmd;
- memset(srp_cmd, 0x00, SRP_MAX_IU_LEN);

For the moment, I'll leave the patch as-is unless you prefer having
the BUILD_BUG_ON(). :)

Thanks!
