You mentioned before that the size of this really is the size of the
structure + KVM_STATS_ID_MAXLEN, right?  Or is it - KVM_STATS_ID_MAXLEN?

If so, why not put that value explicitly in:
	char id[THE_REST_OF_THE_HEADER_SPACE];

As this is not a variable header size at all, and you can not change it
going forward, so the variable length array here feels disingenuous.

What is the max length of name?

Why aren't these structures defined here in kerneldoc so that we can
understand them better?  Putting them in a .rst file guarantees they
will get out of sync, and you can always directly import the kerneldoc
into the .rst file.
