Replace the deprecated one-element array with a modern flexible array
member in the struct hvtramp_descr.

Additionally, 15 unnecessary bytes were allocated for hdesc, but instead
of fixing the parentheses in the open-coded version, use struct_size()
to calculate the correct number of bytes.

If this justifies a Fixes: tag, it should probably be:

Fixes: 64658743fdd4 ("[SPARC64]: Remove most limitations to kernel image size.")

Thanks,
