Subject: [PATCH][next] scsi: bfa: Replace one-element array with flexible-array member
Date: Tue, 15 Nov 2022 14:25:16 -0600	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <Y3P1rEEBq7HzJygq@work> (raw)

One-element arrays are deprecated, and we are replacing them with flexible
array members instead. So, replace one-element array with flexible-array
member in struct fdmi_attr_s.

Important to mention is that doing a build before/after this patch results
in no binary output differences.

This helps with the ongoing efforts to tighten the FORTIFY_SOURCE routines
on memcpy() and help us make progress towards globally enabling
-fstrict-flex-arrays=3 [1].
