45c21a0e5b iwlwifi: Replace zero-length array with flexible-array
The current codebase makes use of the zero-length array language
extension to the C90 standard, but the preferred mechanism to declare
variable-length types such as these ones is a flexible array member[1][2],
introduced in C99:

struct foo {
        int stuff;
        struct boo array[];
};

By making use of the mechanism above, we will get a compiler warning
in case the flexible array does not occur last in the structure, which
will help us prevent some kind of undefined behavior bugs from being
inadvertently introduced[3] to the codebase from now on.

Also, notice that, dynamic memory allocations won't be affected by
this change:

"Flexible array members have incomplete type, and so the sizeof operator
may not be applied. As a quirk of the original implementation of
zero-length arrays, sizeof evaluates to zero."[1]

sizeof(flexible-array-member) triggers a warning because flexible array
members have incomplete type[1]. There are some instances of code in
which the sizeof operator is being incorrectly/erroneously applied to
zero-length arrays and the result is zero. Such instances may be hiding
some bugs. So, this work (flexible-array member conversions) will also
help to get completely rid of those sorts of issues.

This issue was found with the help of Coccinelle.

754f890a3a iwlwifi: remove all occurrences of the FSF address paragraph
The Free Software Foundation address is superfluous and causes
checkpatch to issue a warning when present.  Remove all paragraphs
with FSF's address to prevent that.

33bdccb71a iwlwifi: remove FSF's address from the license notice
The Free Software Foundation's address shouldn't be in the license
notice anymore, and some of our check scripts complain about it
(via checkpatch.pl).  Remove the address to silence it.

dcbb474628 iwlwifi: trans: support a callback for ASYNC commands
This allows the op_mode to request from the transport to
call a callback when an ASYNC commands is completed by
the firmware. The same callback will be called for all the
commands. Pass the command whose response triggers the
callback as a parameter to the callback itself.
