  The type of "mwifiex_adapter->nd_info" is "struct cfg80211_wowlan_nd_info",
not "struct cfg80211_wowlan_nd_match".

Use struct_size() to ease the computation of the needed size.

The current code over-allocates some memory, so is safe.
But it wastes 32 bytes.

Fixes: 7d7f07d8c5d3 ("mwifiex: add wowlan net-detect support")
