Kees Cook fdb1db6ea7 scsi: aacraid: struct {user,}sgmap{,64,raw}: Replace 1-element arrays with flexible arrays
Replace the deprecated[1] use of 1-element arrays in struct sgmap, struct
sgmap64, struct sgmapraw, struct user_sgmap, and struct user_sgmap64 with
modern flexible arrays. Additionally remove struct user_sgmapraw as it is
unused.

The resulting binary output differences from this change are limited only
to stack space consumption of the smaller "srbu" variable in
aac_issue_safw_bmic_identify() and aac_get_safw_ciss_luns(), as well as the
smaller associated pair of memcpy()s in
aac_send_safw_bmic_cmd(). Artificially growing the size of srbu back to its
prior size removes all binary differences[2].

As an aside, after studying the aacraid driver code I wonder how
aac_send_wellness_command() ever works. It is reporting a size 4 bytes too
small for what it has constructed in memory in the DMA region: sgentry64 is
size 12, whereas sgentry is size 8. Perhaps the hardware doesn't
care. (Regardless, it is unchanged by this patch.)

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the reStructuredText markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
