Zero-length arrays as fake flexible arrays are deprecated and we are moving
towards adopting C99 flexible-array members instead.
Address the following warning found with GCC-13 and -fstrict-flex-arrays=3
enabled:
CC drivers/target/target_core_user.o
drivers/target/target_core_user.c: In function ‘queue_cmd_ring’:
drivers/target/target_core_user.c:1096:15: warning: array subscript 0 is outside array bounds of ‘struct iovec[0]’ [-Warray-bounds=]
1096 | iov = &entry->req.iov[0];
| ^~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
In file included from drivers/target/target_core_user.c:31:
./include/uapi/linux/target_core_user.h:122:38: note: while referencing ‘iov’
122 | struct iovec iov[0];
| ^~~
This helps with the ongoing efforts to tighten the FORTIFY_SOURCE routines
on memcpy() and help us make progress towards globally enabling
-fstrict-flex-arrays=3 [1].
