Subject: [PATCH] dma-buf/fence-array: Add flex array to struct dma_fence_array

This is an effort to get rid of all multiplications from allocation
functions in order to prevent integer overflows [1][2].

The "struct dma_fence_array" can be refactored to add a flex array in order
to have the "callback structures allocated behind the array" be more
explicit.

Do so:
   - makes the code more readable and safer.
   - allows using __counted_by() for additional checks
   - avoids some pointer arithmetic in dma_fence_array_enable_signaling()

Compile tested only.

Also, I don't think that 'cb' is a great name and the associated kernel-doc
description could certainly be improved.
Any proposal welcomed :)
