Starting in 6.1, CONFIG_FORTIFY_SOURCE checks the length parameter of memcpy. Since we're already fixing problems with BUI item copying, we should fix it everything else. An extra difficulty here is that the ef[id]_extents arrays are declared as single-element arrays. This is not the convention for flex arrays in the modern kernel, and it causes all manner of problems with static checking tools, since they often cannot tell the difference between a single element array and a flex array. So for starters, change those array[1] declarations to array[] declarations to signal that they are proper flex arrays and adjust all the "size-1" expressions to fit the new declaration style. Next, refactor the xfs_efi_copy_format function to handle the copying of the head and the flex array members separately. While we're at it, fix a minor validation deficiency in the recovery function.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
