-Wflex-array-member-not-at-end was introduced in GCC-14, and we are
getting ready to enable it, globally.

Move the conflicting declaration (which happens to be in a union,
so we're moving the entire union) to the end of the corresponding
structure. Notice that `struct ssp_response_iu` is a flexible
structure, this is a structure that contains a flexible-array member.

With these changes fix the following warning:

drivers/scsi/isci/task.h:92:11: warning: structure containing a flexible array member is not at the end of another structure [-Wflex-array-member-not-at-end]
