There is a regular need in the kernel to provide a way to declare
having a dynamically sized set of trailing elements in a structure.
Kernel code should always use “flexible array members”[1] for these
cases. The older style of one-element or zero-length arrays should
no longer be used[2].

Hi all,
Friendly ping: can someone take this, please?
...I can take this in my -next tree in the meantime.
Like we have discussed before, please don't take any wireless patches to
your tree. The conflicts just cause more work of us.
Sure thing. I just removed it from my tree.
I didn't get any reply from wireless people in more than a month, and
that's why I temporarily took it in my tree so it doesn't get lost. :)
I assigned this patch to me on patchwork and I'm planning to take it to
wireless-next once it opens. Luca, ack?
Awesome.
Thanks
