Subject[PATCH] firewire: firewire-cdev.h: Avoid the use of one-element array
Date
From: Qianli Zhao <zhaoqianli@xiaomi.com>

There is a regular need in the kernel to provide a way to declare having a
dynamically sized set of trailing elements in a structure. Kernel code should
always use “flexible array members”[1] for these cases. The older style of
one-element or zero-length arrays should no longer be used[2].
