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.

I think you should harden the wording here into "must" no longer be used.

We had so many problems with that and certain gcc versions that we 
should have this automatically checked somehow.

Makes sense. I'm applying this patch to amd-staging-drm-next.

I also found a similar issue in include/uapi/linux/kfd_ioctl.h. I'll 
send another patch to fix that as well.
