Subject: [PATCH][next] block: scsi_ioctl: Avoid the use of one-element arrays
Date: Fri, 2 Oct 2020 18:10:33 -0500	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20201002231033.GA6273@embeddedor> (raw)

One-element arrays are being deprecated[1]. Replace the one-element array
with a simple object of type compat_caddr_t: 'compat_caddr_t unused'[2],
once it seems this field is actually never used.

Also, update struct cdrom_generic_command in UAPI by adding an
anonimous union to avoid using the one-element array _reserved_.
