As you noted, switching to a flexible array member changes the
size of struct vmtransfer_page_packet_header.   In netvsc_receive()
the size of this structure is used in validation of the VMbus packet
received from Hyper-V.  Changing the size of the structure changes
the validation.   The validation code probably needs to be adjusted
to account for the new structure size (or the original validation code
was wrong).

There might be other places in the code that are affected by a change
in the size of this structure.  I haven't fully investigated.
