Ah, okay. Thanks for checking!

Yeah, that could work, though the last member would be:
	DECLARE_FLEX_ARRAY(u32, config_data);
otherwise the array is 0 length (rather than a proper flex array).

But before that, let me see if I can track down where the size is being
used, in case we can avoid adding the padding.
