Gustavo A. R. Silva 537a0c5c42 net: fddi: skfp: smt: Replace one-element array with flexible-array member
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].

Refactor the code according to the use of flexible-array members in
smt_sif_operation structure, instead of one-element arrays. Also, make
use of the struct_size() helper instead of the open-coded version
to calculate the size of the struct-with-flex-array. Additionally, make
use of the typeof operator to properly determine the object type to be
passed to macro smtod().

Also, this helps the ongoing efforts to enable -Warray-bounds by fixing
the following warnings:

README

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
