[PATCH net-next 3/6] sctp: delete the nested flexible array variable

[Xin Long <lucien.xin@xxxxxxxxx>]

This patch deletes the flexible-array variable[] from the structure
sctp_sackhdr and sctp_errhdr to avoid some sparse warnings:

  # make C=2 CF="-Wflexible-array-nested" M=./net/sctp/
  net/sctp/sm_statefuns.c: note: in included file (through include/net/sctp/structs.h, include/net/sctp/sctp.h):
  ./include/linux/sctp.h:451:28: warning: nested flexible array
  ./include/linux/sctp.h:393:29: warning: nested flexible array
