wifi: brcmfmac: Fix field-spanning write in brcmf_scan_params_v2_to_v1()
Using brcmfmac with 6.5-rc3 on a brcmfmac43241b4-sdio triggers a backtrace caused by the following field-spanning warning: memcpy: detected field-spanning write (size 120) of single field "&params_le->channel_list[0]" at drivers/net/wireless/broadcom/brcm80211/brcmfmac/cfg80211.c:1072 (size 2) The driver still works after this warning. The warning was introduced by the new field-spanning write checks which were enabled recently. Fix this by replacing the channel_list[1] declaration at the end of the struct with a flexible array declaration. Most users of struct brcmf_scan_params_le calculate the size to alloc using the size of the non flex-array part of the struct + needed extra space, so they do not care about sizeof(struct brcmf_scan_params_le). brcmf_notify_escan_complete() however uses the struct on the stack, expecting there to be room for at least 1 entry in the channel-list to store the special -1 abort channel-id. To make this work use an anonymous union with a padding member added + the actual channel_list flexible array.
