Gustavo A. R. Silva f402cf03fc ocfs2: Use zero-sized array and struct_size() in kzalloc()
Update the code to use a zero-sized array instead of a pointer in
structure ocfs2_slot_info and use struct_size() in kzalloc().

Notice that one of the more common cases of allocation size calculations
is finding the size of a structure that has a zero-sized array at the
end, along with memory for some number of elements for that array.  For
example:

  struct foo {
      int stuff;
      void *entry[];
  };

  instance = kzalloc(sizeof(struct foo) + sizeof(void *) * count, GFP_KERNEL);

Instead of leaving these open-coded and prone to type mistakes, we can
now use the new struct_size() helper:

  instance = kzalloc(struct_size(instance, entry, count), GFP_KERNEL);

This code was detected with the help of Coccinelle.
