Commit Message

Gustavo A. R. Silva March 27, 2025, 5:12 p.m. UTC
-Wflex-array-member-not-at-end was introduced in GCC-14, and we are
getting ready to enable it, globally.

Use the `DEFINE_RAW_FLEX()` helper for on-stack definitions of
a flexible structure where the size of the flexible-array member
is known at compile-time, and refactor the rest of the code,
accordingly.

So, with these changes, fix the following warning:

drivers/watchdog/cros_ec_wdt.c:29:40: warning: structure containing a flexible array member is not at the end of another structure [-Wflex-array-member-not-at-end]

Changes v2:
 - Fix truncated line in changelog text. (Tzung-Bi)
 - Update variable name: s/buf/msg (Tzung-Bi)
 - Cast to structs instead of union. (Tzung-Bi)
 - Add RB tag.

v1:

Technically redundant, but it was redundant before, so keeping style is
okay.

msg->data used twice and a "sizeof()" earlier... might be nicer to have
an explicit pointer?

Argh. I did it again. I can't see "params" vs "response". q_q

Sorry for the noise!
