[PATCH 1/2] ocfs2: Use flexible array in 'struct ocfs2_recovery_map'

From: Christophe JAILLET
Date: Sun Jul 16 2023 - 14:49:26 EST


Turn 'rm_entries' in 'struct ocfs2_recovery_map' into a flexible array.

The advantages are:
- save the size of a pointer when the new undo structure is allocated
- avoid some always ugly pointer arithmetic to get the address of
'rm_entries'
- avoid an indirection when the array is accessed

While at it, use struct_size() to compute the size of the new undo
structure.
