Subject: [PATCH] coccinelle: misc: restrict patch mode in flexible_array.cocci
Date: Mon,  8 Mar 2021 22:12:15 +0300	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20210308191215.1362498-1-efremov@linux.com> (raw)

Skip patches generation for structs/unions with a single field.
Changing a zero-length array to a flexible array member in a struct
with no named members breaks the compilation. However, reporting
such cases is still valuable, e.g. commit 637464c59e0b
("ACPI: NFIT: Fix flexible_array.cocci warnings").
