misc: Replace zero-length arrays with flexible array member (manual)
Description copied from Linux kernel commit from Gustavo A. R. Silva (see [3]): --v-- description start --v-- The current codebase makes use of the zero-length array language extension to the C90 standard, but the preferred mechanism to declare variable-length types such as these ones is a flexible array member [1], introduced in C99: struct foo { int stuff; struct boo array[]; }; By making use of the mechanism above, we will get a compiler warning in case the flexible array does not occur last in the structure, which will help us prevent some kind of undefined behavior bugs from being unadvertenly introduced [2] to the Linux codebase from now on. --^-- description end --^-- Do the similar housekeeping in the QEMU codebase (which uses C99 since commit 7be41675f7cb). All these instances of code were found with the help of the following command (then manual analysis, without modifying structures only having a single flexible array member, such QEDTable in block/qed.h): git grep -F '[0];' [1] https://gcc.gnu.org/onlinedocs/gcc/Zero-Length.html [2] https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux.git/commit/?id=76497732932f [3] https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/gustavoars/linux.git/commit/?id=17642a2fbd2c1 Inspired-by: Gustavo A.
