sctp: fix a plenty of flexible-array-nested warnings
Paolo noticed a compile warning in SCTP,
../net/sctp/stream_sched_fc.c: note: in included file (through ../include/net/sctp/sctp.h):
../include/net/sctp/structs.h:335:41: warning: array of flexible structures
But not only this, there are actually quite a lot of such warnings in
some SCTP structs. This patchset fixes most of warnings by deleting
these nested flexible array members.
After this patchset, there are still some warnings left:
# make C=2 CF="-Wflexible-array-nested" M=./net/sctp/
./include/net/sctp/structs.h:1145:41: warning: nested flexible array
./include/uapi/linux/sctp.h:641:34: warning: nested flexible array
./include/uapi/linux/sctp.h:643:34: warning: nested flexible array
./include/uapi/linux/sctp.h:644:33: warning: nested flexible array
./include/uapi/linux/sctp.h:650:40: warning: nested flexible array
./include/uapi/linux/sctp.h:653:39: warning: nested flexible array
the 1st is caused by __data[] in struct ip_options, not in SCTP;
the others are in uapi, and we should not touch them.
Note that instead of completely deleting it, we just leave it as a
comment in the struct, signalling to the reader that we do expect
such variable parameters over there, as Marcelo suggested.
