Prepare for the coming implementation by GCC and Clang of the __counted_by
attribute. Flexible array members annotated with __counted_by can have
their accesses bounds-checked at run-time checking via CONFIG_UBSAN_BOUNDS
(for array indexing) and CONFIG_FORTIFY_SOURCE (for strcpy/memcpy-family
functions).
As found with Coccinelle[1], add __counted_by for struct kvm_irq_routing_table.

Applied to for-next/hardening, thanks!
[1/1] KVM: Annotate struct kvm_irq_routing_table with __counted_by

Take care,
