The kernel is globally removing the ambiguous 0-length and 1-element
arrays in favor of flexible arrays, so that we can gain both compile-time
and run-time array bounds checking[1].
Replace the trailing 1-element array with a flexible array in the
following structures:
struct cifs_spnego_msg
struct cifs_quota_data
struct get_dfs_referral_rsp
struct file_alt_name_info
NEGOTIATE_RSP
SESSION_SETUP_ANDX
TCONX_REQ
TCONX_RSP
TCONX_RSP_EXT
ECHO_REQ
ECHO_RSP
OPEN_REQ
OPENX_REQ
LOCK_REQ
RENAME_REQ
COPY_REQ
COPY_RSP
NT_RENAME_REQ
DELETE_FILE_REQ
DELETE_DIRECTORY_REQ
CREATE_DIRECTORY_REQ
QUERY_INFORMATION_REQ
SETATTR_REQ
TRANSACT_IOCTL_REQ
TRANSACT_CHANGE_NOTIFY_REQ
TRANSACTION2_QPI_REQ
TRANSACTION2_SPI_REQ
TRANSACTION2_FFIRST_REQ
TRANSACTION2_GET_DFS_REFER_REQ
FILE_UNIX_LINK_INFO
FILE_DIRECTORY_INFO
FILE_FULL_DIRECTORY_INFO
SEARCH_ID_FULL_DIR_INFO
FILE_BOTH_DIRECTORY_INFO
FIND_FILE_STANDARD_INFO
Replace the trailing 1-element array with a flexible array, but leave
the existing structure padding:
FILE_ALL_INFO
FILE_UNIX_INFO
Remove unused structures:
struct gea
struct gealist
Adjust all related size calculations to match the changes to sizeof().
No machine code output differences are produced after these changes.

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.
