Subject: [PATCH][next] wifi: brcmfmac: fweh: Add __counted_by for struct
 brcmf_fweh_queue_item and use struct_size()

Prepare for the coming implementation by GCC and Clang of the __counted_by
attribute. Flexible array members annotated with __counted_by can have
their accesses bounds-checked at run-time via CONFIG_UBSAN_BOUNDS (for
array indexing) and CONFIG_FORTIFY_SOURCE (for strcpy/memcpy-family
functions).

Also, relocate `event->datalen = datalen;` to before calling
`memcpy(event->data, data, datalen);`, so that the __counted_by
annotation has effect, and flex-array member `data` can be properly
bounds-checked at run-time.

While there, use struct_size() helper, instead of the open-coded
version, to calculate the size for the allocation of the whole
flexible structure, including of course, the flexible-array member.

This code was found with the help of Coccinelle, and audited and
fixed manually.
