Subject: [PATCH 0/2][next] UAPI: net/ethtool: Avoid thousands of
 -Wflex-array-member-not-at-end warnings

Small patch series aimed at fixing thousands of -Wflex-array-member-not-at-end
warnings by creating a new tagged struct within a flexible structure. We then
use this new struct type to fix problematic middle-flex-array declarations in
multiple composite structs, as well as to update the type of some variables in
various functions.

Gustavo A. R. Silva (2):
  UAPI: ethtool: Use __struct_group() in struct ethtool_link_settings
  net: ethtool: Avoid thousands of -Wflex-array-member-not-at-end
    warnings
