FS-Cache: Replace zero-length array with flexible-array
Browse files Browse the repository at this point in the history
There is a regular need in the kernel to provide a way to declare having a
dynamically sized set of trailing elements in a structure. Kernel code should
always use “flexible array members”[1] for these cases. The older style of
one-element or zero-length arrays should no longer be used[2].
