Subject[PATCH RFC 6/6] btrfs: LLVMLinux: Remove VLAIS
Date
From: Vinícius Tinti <viniciustinti@gmail.com>

Replaced the use of a Variable Length Array In Struct (VLAIS) with a C99
compliant equivalent. This is the original VLAIS struct.

struct {
struct shash_desc shash;
char ctx[crypto_shash_descsize(tfm)];
} desc;

This patch instead allocates the appropriate amount of memory using an char
array.

The new code can be compiled with both gcc and clang.

struct shash_desc contains a flexible array member member ctx declared with
CRYPTO_MINALIGN_ATTR, so sizeof(struct shash_desc) aligns the beginning
of the array declared after struct shash_desc with long long.

No trailing padding is required because it is not a struct type that can
be used in an array.

The CRYPTO_MINALIGN_ATTR is required so that desc is aligned with long long
as would be the case for a struct containing a member with
CRYPTO_MINALIGN_ATTR.
