Prepare for the coming implementation by GCC and Clang of the __counted_by
attribute. Flexible array members annotated with __counted_by can have
their accesses bounds-checked at run-time checking via CONFIG_UBSAN_BOUNDS
(for array indexing) and CONFIG_FORTIFY_SOURCE (for strcpy/memcpy-family
functions).

As found with Coccinelle[1], add __counted_by for struct sidtab_str_cache.

This also looks good to me, but similarly to the audit patch, since we
are at -rc6 I'm going to wait to merge this until after the merge
window.  I'll send a follow up email once it's merged.

Thanks.

Thanks! Yeah, there's no rush. :)
