Subject: [PATCH][next] net/mlx5e: Replace zero-length array with
 flexible-array member
Message-ID: <Y7zB7shx/u1zWrbj@work>
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii
Content-Disposition: inline
Precedence: bulk

Zero-length arrays are deprecated[1] and we are moving towards
adopting C99 flexible-array members instead. So, replace zero-length
array declaration in struct mlx5e_flow_meter_aso_obj with flex-array
member.

This helps with the ongoing efforts to tighten the FORTIFY_SOURCE
routines on memcpy() and help us make progress towards globally
enabling -fstrict-flex-arrays=3 [2].
