Replace the deprecated[1] use of a 1-element array in struct MR_HOST_DEVICE_LIST with a modern flexible array. One binary difference appears in megasas_host_device_list_query(): struct MR_HOST_DEVICE_LIST *ci; ... ci = instance->host_device_list_buf; ... memset(ci, 0, sizeof(*ci)); The memset() clears only the non-flexible array fields. Looking at the rest of the function, this appears to be fine: firmware is using this region to communicate with the kernel, so it likely never made sense to clear the first MR_HOST_DEVICE_LIST_ENTRY.
