There is a regular need in the kernel to provide a way to declare having a dynamically sized set of trailing elements in a structure. Kernel code should always use “flexible array members”[1] for these cases. The older style of one-element or zero-length arrays should no longer be used[2]. Refactor the code according to the use of a flexible-array member in struct icmsg_negotiate, instead of a one-element array. Also, this helps the ongoing efforts to enable -Warray-bounds and fix the following warnings: drivers/hv/channel_mgmt.c:315:23: warning: array subscript 1 is above array bounds of ‘struct ic_version[1]’ [-Warray-bounds] drivers/hv/channel_mgmt.c:316:23: warning: array subscript 1 is above array bounds of ‘struct ic_version[1]’ [-Warray-bounds] [1] https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Flexible_array_member [2] https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/v5.9/process/deprecated.html#zero-length-and-one-element-arrays Link: https://github.com/KSPP/linux/issues/79 Link: https://github.com/KSPP/linux/issues/109 Signed-off-by: Gustavo A.
