We've designed the /dev/rfkill API in a way that we can increase the event struct by adding members at the end, should it become necessary. To validate the events, userspace and the kernel need to have the proper event size to check for -- when reading from the other end they need to verify that it's at least version 1 of the event API, with the current struct size, so define a constant for that and make the code a little more 'future proof'. Not that I expect that we'll have to change the event size any time soon, but it's better to write the code in a way that lends itself to extending. Due to the current size of the event struct, the code is currently equivalent, but should the event struct ever need to be increased the new code might not need changing.
