ethtool: Replace 0-length array with flexible array
Browse files Browse the repository at this point in the history
Zero-length arrays are deprecated[1]. Replace struct ethtool_rxnfc's
"rule_locs" 0-length array with a flexible array. Detected with GCC 13,
using -fstrict-flex-arrays=3:

net/ethtool/common.c: In function 'ethtool_get_max_rxnfc_channel':
net/ethtool/common.c:558:55: warning: array subscript i is outside array bounds of '__u32[0]' {aka 'unsigned int[]'} [-Warray-bounds=]

      |                                        ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~^~~
