Fix following coccicheck warnings:
./sound/pci/hda/patch_realtek.c:128:4-24: WARNING use
flexible-array member instead.

There is a regular need in the kernel to provide a way
to declare having a dynamically sized set of trailing
elements in a structure. Kernel code should always use
“flexible array members” for these cases. The older style
of one-element or zero-length arrays should no longer be used.

It's a false positive.  That is no flexible array but really an array
of the size 1.  It's written in that way so that you can extend more
members in future in case other keys needed.


thanks,
