Subject: [PATCH v2] wifi: ath11k: Fix ath11k_htc_record flexible record

Transform the zero-length ath11k_htc_record::credit_report array into
a proper flexible array. Since this is the only array in
ath11k_htc_record, remove the unnecessary union.

Changes in v2:
- Original patches 1/4 2/4 3/4 already accepted
- This is original patch 4/4, updated to incorporate Gustavo's review
comment, removing the `union` and just do a direct transformation
[0] -> [ ]
- Link to v1: https://lore.kernel.org/r/[email protected]

Heh, looks good. I wonder why this was a union to begin with?
