Zero-length arrays as fake flexible arrays are deprecated and we are moving towards adopting C99 flexible-array members instead. Address the following warnings found with GCC-13 and -fstrict-flex-arrays=3 enabled: drivers/net/wireless/ath/carl9170/tx.c:702:61: warning: array subscript i is outside array bounds of ‘const struct _carl9170_tx_status[0]’ [-Warray-bounds=] drivers/net/wireless/ath/carl9170/tx.c:701:65: warning: array subscript i is outside array bounds of ‘const struct _carl9170_tx_status[0]’ [-Warray-bounds=] 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].
