struct acpi_table_slit is used for copying System Locality Information
Table data from ACPI tables. Here `entry` is a flex array but it was
using ancient 1-element fake flexible array, which has been deprecated.
Replace it with a C99 flexible array.

Since this is a fix for -fstrict-flex-arrays=3, I can carry this in the
hardening tree until it shows up in upstream ACPICA.

Applied to for-next/hardening, thanks!
