From: "Minghao Chi (CGEL ZTE)" <chi.minghao at zte.com.cn>
Replace zero-length array with flexible-array member and make use
of the struct_size() helper in kmalloc(). For example:
struct fw_request {
...
u32 data[];
}
Make use of the struct_size() helper instead of an open-coded version
in order to avoid any potential type mistakes.
