To avoid repeating the open-coded "17", this could either be a define:

nv50_hdmi_enable(...)
{
...
#define data_len	17
	DEFINE_RAW_FLEX(struct nvif_outp_infoframe_v0, args, data, data_len);
...rest of function...
#undef data_len
}

or an ungainly but compile-time calculated value that exposes some
DEFINE_FLEX internals:

	const u8 data_len = (sizeof(args_u) - sizeof(*args)) / sizeof(*args->data);

(Maybe a helper is needed for that?)

#define STACK_FLEX_COUNT(name, member)	\
	((sizeof(name##_u) = sizeof(*(name))) / sizeof(*(name)->member))

The stack variable (was before and is again) already zero-initialized,
so the "= 0" line shouldn't be needed.

But neither of these comments are show-stoppers, IMO.
