Subject: [PATCH][next] nfp: Avoid -Wflex-array-member-not-at-end warnings

-Wflex-array-member-not-at-end is coming in GCC-14, and we are getting
ready to enable it globally.

There is currently an object (`tl`), at the beginning of multiple
structures, that contains a flexible structure (`struct nfp_dump_tl`),
for example:

struct nfp_dumpspec_csr {
struct nfp_dump_tl tl;

...

__be32 register_width; /* in bits */
};

So, in order to avoid ending up with flexible-array members in the
middle of multiple other structs, we use the `struct_group_tagged()`
helper to separate the flexible array from the rest of the members
in the flexible structure:

struct nfp_dump_tl {
struct_group_tagged(nfp_dump_tl_hdr, hdr,

... the rest of members

);
char data[];
};

With the change described above, we now declare objects of the type of
the tagged struct, in this case `struct nfp_dump_tl_hdr`, without
embedding flexible arrays in the middle of another struct:

struct nfp_dumpspec_csr {
struct nfp_dump_tl_hdr tl;

...

__be32 register_width; /* in bits */
};

Also, use `container_of()` whenever we need to retrieve a pointer to
the flexible structure, through which we can access the flexible
array if needed.

So, with these changes, fix 33 of the following warnings:

I counted 9 references to nfp_dump_tl->data.
Better to add:

static void *nfp_dump_tl_data(struct nfp_dump_tl *spec)
{
return &spec[1];
}

and delete the flex array completely.

Unfortunately, that's out-of-bounds for the compiler, and well, basically
the reason why flex-array members were created in the first place.

I was looking into implementing two separate structs:

struct nfp_dump_tl_hdr {
__be32 type;
__be32 length; /* chunk length to follow, aligned to 8 bytes */
};

struct nfp_dump_tl {
__be32 type;
__be32 length; /* chunk length to follow, aligned to 8 bytes */
char data[];
};

and at least for structs nfp_dumpspec_csr, nfp_dumpspec_rtsym, nfp_dump_csr, and
nfp_dump_rtsym it'd be a clean change (no need for container_of()), but not for
structs nfp_dumpspec_csr and nfp_dumpspec_rtsym because of some casts from
the flex struct:

nfp_add_tlv_size():
case NFP_DUMPSPEC_TYPE_ME_CSR:
spec_csr = (struct nfp_dumpspec_csr *)tl;
if (!nfp_csr_spec_valid(spec_csr))
...

case NFP_DUMPSPEC_TYPE_INDIRECT_ME_CSR:
spec_csr = (struct nfp_dumpspec_csr *)tl;
if (!nfp_csr_spec_valid(spec_csr))
...

case NFP_DUMPSPEC_TYPE_RTSYM:
spec_rtsym = (struct nfp_dumpspec_rtsym *)tl;
err = nfp_dump_single_rtsym(pf, spec_rtsym, dump);

nfp_calc_rtsym_dump_sz():
spec_rtsym = (struct nfp_dumpspec_rtsym *)spec;


At least for those two structs, it's probably more straightforward to use
struct_group_tagged() and container_of().
