Subject: [PATCH 1/2][next] vfio/ccw: Replace one-element array with flexible-array member

One-element arrays are deprecated, and we are replacing them with flexible
array members instead. So, replace one-element array with flexible-array
member in struct vfio_ccw_parent and refactor the the rest of the code
accordingly.

Hi, wouldn't:

parent = kzalloc(struct_size(parent, mdev_types, 1)),

be more informative and in the spirit of flexible array use?
