Thank you! Gustavo. This patch can fix this warning well, just the name
'*_hdr' might not be very accurate, but I don't have a good idea ATM.

Besides, I am wondering if this can be fixed by moving
user_eids of smc_clc_msg_proposal_area into smc_clc_v2_extension,
and
pclc_gidchids of smc_clc_msg_proposal_area into smc_clc_smcd_v2_extension.

so that we can avoid to use the flexible-array in smc_clc_v2_extension
and smc_clc_smcd_v2_extension.
