| |
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].
Refactor the code according to the use of a flexible-array member in struct virtchnl_rss_key instead of one-element array, and use the struct_size() helper.
