From: "Minghao Chi (CGEL ZTE)" <chi.minghao@zte.com.cn>

Replace zero-length array with flexible-array member and make use
of the struct_size() helper in kmalloc(). For example:

struct fw_request {
    ...
    u32 data[];
}

Make use of the struct_size() helper instead of an open-coded version
in order to avoid any potential type mistakes.
