Yep; that change compensates for the removal of the 1 in the declaration
of entries[].
The above piece of code is a common idiom to calculate the size for an
allocation when a one-element array is involved. In the original code
(vha->hw->max_fibre_devices - 1) compensates for the _extra_ size of one
element of type struct ct_sns_gpn_ft_data in sizeof(struct ct_sns_gpnft_rsp).
