Subject: ocfs2: use flexible array in 'struct ocfs2_recovery_map'
Date: Sun, 16 Jul 2023 20:48:56 +0200
Turn 'rm_entries' in 'struct ocfs2_recovery_map' into a flexible array.
The advantages are:
- save the size of a pointer when the new undo structure is allocated
- avoid some always ugly pointer arithmetic to get the address of
'rm_entries'
- avoid an indirection when the array is accessed
While at it, use struct_size() to compute the size of the new undo
structure.
