In preparation for FORTIFY_SOURCE performing compile-time and run-time field bounds checking for memcpy(), memmove(), and memset(), avoid intentionally writing across neighboring fields. The it_present member of struct ieee80211_radiotap_header is treated as a flexible array (multiple u32s can be conditionally present). In order for memcpy() to reason (or really, not reason) about the size of operations against this struct, use of bytes beyond it_present need to be treated as part of the flexible array. Add a trailing flexible array and initialize its initial index via pointer arithmetic. Cc: Johannes Berg <johannes@sipsolutions.net> Cc: "David S.

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.
