Subject: [PATCH] vfio: pci: use kzalloc_flex
Date: Wed, 25 Mar 2026 19:37:47 -0700	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260326023747.54485-1-rosenp@gmail.com> (raw)

Simplify allocation by using a flexible array member and kzalloc_flex.
Less memory management needed.

Use __counted_by for extra runtime analysis. Move assignment to after
allocation as required by __counted_by.
