Good catch. I removed value[] when reworking the
virtio_iommu_probe_resv_mem definition, because embedding a struct with
a flexible array into another violates the C99 standard, even though GCC
accepts it.

I'll remove it from the spec as well, but I probably won't publish a new
version for this change alone. The virtio spec itself has similar uses
of flexible arrays, that are given for explanation but aren't valid C
(and those wouldn't even compile).

Thanks,
Jean
