Subject: [PATCH] drm/gma500: Remove VLA
Date:   Mon,  9 Apr 2018 14:06:47 -0700
Message-Id: <20180409210647.3718-1-labbott@redhat.com>
Sender: linux-kernel-owner@vger.kernel.org
Precedence: bulk


There's an ongoing effort to remove VLAs[1] from the kernel to eventually
turn on -Wvla. Switch to a reasonable upper bound for the VLAs in
the gma500 driver.

This was a little hard to figure out but I think 32 should be a
comfortable upper bound based on all the structures I saw. Of course I
can't test it.
