Subject: [PATCH v2][next] firewire: core: avoid -Wflex-array-member-not-at-end warning
Date: Fri, 14 Mar 2025 08:58:23 +1030 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <Z9NcB81yfPo-8o0h@kspp> (raw)
Use the `DEFINE_RAW_FLEX()` helper for an on-stack definition of
a flexible structure where the size of the flexible-array member
is known at compile-time, and refactor the rest of the code,
accordingly.
So, with these changes, fix the following warning:
drivers/firewire/core-cdev.c:1141:38: warning: structure containing a flexible array member is not at the end of another structure [-Wflex-array-member-not-at-end]
Signed-off-by: Gustavo A. R. Silva <gustavoars@kernel.org>

Changes in v2:
- Adjust COUNT argument for DEFINE_RAW_FLEX() to 64. (Takashi)
v1:
- Link: https://lore.kernel.org/linux-hardening/Z9AA9tAbcIcz6BMO@kspp/
