We agree on that part.

>From the above, "sizeof(struct fw_rsc_imx_dsp) > imx_dsp_rsc->len" would be a
valid condition when it clearly isn't. I am still convinced the only
valid option is:
sizeof(struct fw_rsc_imx_dsp) != imx_dsp_rsc->len)
I am happy to change my mind but would need more information.
