I'm sure there are more, but it's likely my Coccinelle pattern didn't
catch it. There are many many flexible arrays in drm. :)

$ grep -nRH '\[\];$' drivers/gpu/drm include/uapi/drm | grep -v :extern | wc -l
122

If anyone has some patterns I can add to the Coccinelle script, I can
take another pass at it.
