Small patch series aimed at fixing thousands of -Wflex-array-member-not-at-end
warnings by creating a new tagged struct within a flexible structure. We then
use this new struct type to fix problematic middle-flex-array declarations in
multiple composite structs, as well as to update the type of some variables in
various functions.

Changes in v2:
 - Update changelog text in patch 2/2 to better reflect the changes
   made. (Jakub)
 - Adjust variable declarations to follow the reverse xmas tree
   convention. (Jakub)

v1:
 - Link: https://lore.kernel.org/linux-hardening/cover.1729536776.git.gustavoars@kernel.org
