Silence run-time memcpy() false positive warning when processing
management frames:

  memcpy: detected field-spanning write (size 27) of single field "&mgmt_frame->u" at drivers/net/wireless/broadcom/brcm80211/brcmfmac/p2p.c:1469 (size 26)

Due to this (soon to be fixed) GCC bug[1], FORTIFY_SOURCE (via
__builtin_dynamic_object_size) doesn't recognize that the union may end
with a flexible array, and returns "26" (the fixed size of the union),
rather than the remaining size of the allocation. Add an explicit
flexible array member and set it as the destination here, so that we
get the correct coverage for the memcpy().

Us having to deal with this kind of stuff is why we need Rust.

Thanks for doing this Kees,
