5224f79096 treewide: Replace zero-length arrays with flexible-array members
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”[1] for these
cases. The older style of one-element or zero-length arrays should
no longer be used[2].

This code was transformed with the help of Coccinelle:
(next-20220214$ spatch --jobs $(getconf _NPROCESSORS_ONLN) --sp-file script.cocci --include-headers --dir . > output.patch)

@@
identifier S, member, array;
type T1, T2;
@@

struct S {
  ...
  T1 member;
  T2 array[
- 0
  ];
};

UAPI and wireless changes were intentionally excluded from this patch
and will be sent out separately.

9ba067f93f xtensa: split bootparam and kernel meminfo
Bootparam meminfo is a bootloader ABI, kernel meminfo is for the kernel
bookkeeping, keep them separate. Kernel doesn't care of memory region
types, so drop the type field and don't pass it to add_sysmem_bank.
Move kernel sysmem structures and prototypes to asm/sysmem.h and sysmem
variable and add_sysmem_bank to mm/init.c

da844a8177 xtensa: add device trees support
Device trees allow specification of hardware topology and device
parameters at runtime instead of hard-coding them in platform setup
code. This allows running single binary kernel on a range of compatible
boards.

New boot parameters tag BP_TAG_FDT is allocated and a pointer to flat
device tree is passed in it.

Note that current interrupt mapping scheme uses single cell for
interrupt identification. That means that IRQ numbers used in DTS must
be CPU internal IRQ numbers, not external. It is possible to extend
interrupt identification to two cells, and use second cell to tell
external IRQ numbers form internal. That would allow to use single DTS
on multiple boards with different mapping of external IRQ numbers.

367b8112fe xtensa: move headers files to arch/xtensa/include
Move all header files for xtensa to arch/xtensa/include and platform and
variant header files to the appropriate arch/xtensa/platforms/ and
arch/xtensa/variants/ directories.

Moving the files gets also rid of all uses of symlinks in the Makefile.

This has been completed already for the majority of the architectures
and xtensa is one out of six missing.
