[PATCH] dma-buf/dma_fence_array: Annotate fences with __counted_by_ptr

[PATCH] dma-buf/dma_fence_array: Annotate fences with __counted_by_ptr

[Bill Wendling]

The 'struct dma_fence_array' holds a pointer field 'fences' that points
to an array of 'dma_fence' pointers, and its element count is stored in
the 'num_fences' field within the same structure.

Annotate 'fences' with the '__counted_by_ptr' attribute to allow
compilers supporting this attribute to perform runtime bounds checking
via KASAN and '__builtin_dynamic_object_size'.

The structure is allocated in 'dma_fence_array_alloc()' which
initializes all fields, including 'fences' and 'num_fences', to zero.
The structure is initialized in 'dma_fence_array_init()'.
