Shin'ichiro Kawasaki 429846b4b6 scsi: mpi3mr: Avoid memcpy field-spanning write WARNING
When the "storcli2 show" command is executed for eHBA-9600, mpi3mr driver
prints this WARNING message:

  memcpy: detected field-spanning write (size 128) of single field "bsg_reply_buf->reply_buf" at drivers/scsi/mpi3mr/mpi3mr_app.c:1658 (size 1)
  WARNING: CPU: 0 PID: 12760 at drivers/scsi/mpi3mr/mpi3mr_app.c:1658 mpi3mr_bsg_request+0x6b12/0x7f10 [mpi3mr]

The cause of the WARN is 128 bytes memcpy to the 1 byte size array "__u8
replay_buf[1]" in the struct mpi3mr_bsg_in_reply_buf. The array is intended
to be a flexible length array, so the WARN is a false positive.

To suppress the WARN, remove the constant number '1' from the array
declaration and clarify that it has flexible length. Also, adjust the
memory allocation size to match the change.

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the reStructuredText markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
