Zero-length arrays as fake flexible arrays are deprecated and we are
moving towards adopting C99 flexible-array members instead.
Address the following warning found with GCC-13 and
-fstrict-flex-arrays=3 enabled:
In function ‘fortify_memset_chk’,
inlined from ‘rtl_usb_probe’ at drivers/net/wireless/realtek/rtlwifi/usb.c:1044:2:
./include/linux/fortify-string.h:430:25: warning: call to ‘__write_overflow_field’ declared with attribute warning: detected write beyond size of field (1st parameter); maybe use struct_group()? [-Wattribute-warning]
430 | __write_overflow_field(p_size_field, size);
| ^~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
This helps with the ongoing efforts to tighten the FORTIFY_SOURCE
routines on memcpy() and help us make progress towards globally
enabling -fstrict-flex-arrays=3 [1].
