Subject: [PATCH v2 1/3] wifi: ath11k: annotate skb of struct ath11k_ce_ring with __counted_by

According to 'ath11k_ce_alloc_ring()', annotate flexible array
member 'skb' of 'struct ath11k_ce_ring' with '__counted_by()'
to improve runtime bounds checking when CONFIG_UBSAN_BOUNDS is
enabled. Compile tested only.
