Subject: [PATCH] vboxsf: Use flexible arrays for trailing string member
Date:   Thu, 20 Jul 2023 08:15:06 -0700
Message-Id: <20230720151458.never.673-kees@kernel.org>
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit
Precedence: bulk

The declaration of struct shfl_string used trailing fake flexible arrays
for the string member. This was tripping FORTIFY_SOURCE since commit
df8fc4e934c1 ("kbuild: Enable -fstrict-flex-arrays=3"). Replace the
utf8 and utf16 members with actual flexible arrays, drop the unused ucs2
member, and retriain a 2 byte padding to keep the structure size the same.
