Subject[PATCH net-next v2 1/3] compiler_types: add Endianness-dependent __counted_by_{le,be}
Date
Some structures contain flexible arrays at the end and the counter for
them, but the counter has explicit Endianness and thus __counted_by()
can't be used directly.

To increase test coverage for potential problems without breaking
anything, introduce __counted_by_{le,be}() defined depending on
platform's Endianness to either __counted_by() when applicable or noop
otherwise.
Maybe it would be a good idea to introduce such attributes on compiler
level if possible, but for now let's stop on what we have.
