-Wflex-array-member-not-at-end was introduced in GCC-14, and we are
getting ready to enable it, globally.
So, in order to avoid ending up with a flexible-array member in the
middle of multiple other structs, we use the `__struct_group()`
helper to create a new tagged `struct ieee80211_radiotap_header_fixed`.
This structure groups together all the members of the flexible
`struct ieee80211_radiotap_header` except the flexible array.
As a result, the array is effectively separated from the rest of the
members without modifying the memory layout of the flexible structure.
We then change the type of the middle struct members currently causing
trouble from `struct ieee80211_radiotap_header` to `struct
ieee80211_radiotap_header_fixed`.
We also want to ensure that in case new members need to be added to the
flexible structure, they are always included within the newly created
tagged struct. For this, we use `static_assert()`. This ensures that the
memory layout for both the flexible structure and the new tagged struct
is the same after any changes.
This approach avoids having to implement `struct ieee80211_radiotap_header_fixed`
as a completely separate structure, thus preventing having to maintain
two independent but basically identical structures, closing the door
to potential bugs in the future.
So, with these changes, fix the following warnings:

The ipw_fw_error structure contains a payload[] flexible array as well as
two pointers to this array area, ->elem, and ->log. The total size of the
allocated structure is computed without use of the <linux/overflow.h>
macros.
There's no reason to keep both a payload[] and an extra pointer to both the
elem and log members. Convert the elem pointer member into the flexible
array member, removing payload.
Fix the allocation of the ipw_fw_error structure to use size_add(),
struct_size(), and array_size() to compute the allocation. This ensures
that any overflow saturates at SIZE_MAX rather than overflowing and
potentially allowing an undersized allocation.
Before the structure change, the layout of ipw_fw_error was:
struct ipw_fw_error {
long unsigned int jiffies; /* 0 8 */
u32 status; /* 8 4 */
u32 config; /* 12 4 */
u32 elem_len; /* 16 4 */
u32 log_len; /* 20 4 */
struct ipw_error_elem * elem; /* 24 8 */
struct ipw_event * log; /* 32 8 */
u8 payload[]; /* 40 0 */
/* size: 40, cachelines: 1, members: 8 */
/* last cacheline: 40 bytes */
};
After this change, the layout is now:
struct ipw_fw_error {
long unsigned int jiffies; /* 0 8 */
u32 status; /* 8 4 */
u32 config; /* 12 4 */
u32 elem_len; /* 16 4 */
u32 log_len; /* 20 4 */
struct ipw_event * log; /* 24 8 */
struct ipw_error_elem elem[]; /* 32 0 */
/* size: 32, cachelines: 1, members: 7 */
/* last cacheline: 32 bytes */
};
This saves a total of 8 bytes for every ipw_fw_error allocation, and
removes the risk of a potential overflow on the allocation.

Zero-length arrays are deprecated and we are moving towards adopting
C99 flexible-array members, instead. So, replace zero-length arrays
declarations in anonymous union with the new DECLARE_FLEX_ARRAY()
helper macro.
This helper allows for flexible-array members in unions.

The usage of in_interrupt() in non-core code is phased out.
The debugging macros in these drivers use in_interrupt() to print 'I' or
'U' depending on the return value of in_interrupt(). While 'U' is confusing
at best and 'I' is not really describing the actual context (hard interupt,
soft interrupt, bottom half disabled section) these debug macros originate
from the pre ftrace kernel era and their value today is questionable. They
probably should be removed completely.
The macros weere added initially for ipw2100 and then spreaded when the
driver was forked.
Remove the in_interrupt() usage at least..

The current codebase makes use of the zero-length array language
extension to the C90 standard, but the preferred mechanism to declare
variable-length types such as these ones is a flexible array member[1][2],
introduced in C99:
struct foo {
int stuff;
struct boo array[];
};
By making use of the mechanism above, we will get a compiler warning
in case the flexible array does not occur last in the structure, which
will help us prevent some kind of undefined behavior bugs from being
inadvertently introduced[3] to the codebase from now on.
Also, notice that, dynamic memory allocations won't be affected by
this change:
"Flexible array members have incomplete type, and so the sizeof operator
may not be applied. As a quirk of the original implementation of
zero-length arrays, sizeof evaluates to zero."[1]
sizeof(flexible-array-member) triggers a warning because flexible array
members have incomplete type[1]. There are some instances of code in
which the sizeof operator is being incorrectly/erroneously applied to
zero-length arrays and the result is zero. Such instances may be hiding
some bugs. So, this work (flexible-array member conversions) will also
help to get completely rid of those sorts of issues.
This issue was found with the help of Coccinelle.

The ipw2x00 driver family uses get_seconds() to read the current time
for various purposes. This function is deprecated because of the 32-bit
time_t overflow, and it can cause unexpected behavior when the time
changes due to settimeofday() calls or leap second updates.
In many cases, we want to use monotonic time instead, however ipw2x00
explicitly tracks the time spent in suspend, so this changes the
driver over to use ktime_get_boottime_seconds(), which is slightly
slower, but not used in a fastpath here.
