Subject: [PATCH v2] ipc:msg: replace one-element array with flexible-array member
Date: Thu,  3 Aug 2023 21:19:49 -0700	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20230804041949.5724-1-rauji.raut@gmail.com> (raw)

One-element arrays are obsolete, and flexible
array members have taken their place. So, in
struct compat_msgbuf, replace the one-element
array with a flexible-array member.

This fixes warnings such as:
./ipc/msg.c:981:6-11: WARNING use flexible-array member instead (https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/process/deprecated.html#zero-length-and-one-element-arrays)
