[PATCH] netem: Annotate struct disttable with __counted_by

[PATCH] netem: Annotate struct disttable with __counted_by

[Kees Cook]

Prepare for the coming implementation by GCC and Clang of the __counted_by
attribute. Flexible array members annotated with __counted_by can have
their accesses bounds-checked at run-time via CONFIG_UBSAN_BOUNDS (for
array indexing) and CONFIG_FORTIFY_SOURCE (for strcpy/memcpy-family
functions).

As found with Coccinelle[1], add __counted_by for struct disttable.

PS: size is intended wrong in original code but that is not important.
Should have lined up with table[].
