Subject: [RESEND PATCH v2] params: Annotate struct module_param_attrs with __counted_by()

Add the __counted_by compiler attribute to the flexible array member
attrs to improve access bounds-checking via CONFIG_UBSAN_BOUNDS and
CONFIG_FORTIFY_SOURCE.

Increment num before adding a new param_attribute to the attrs array and
adjust the array index accordingly. Increment num immediately after the
first reallocation such that the reallocation for the NULL terminator
only needs to add 1 (instead of 2) to mk->mp->num.

Use struct_size() instead of manually calculating the size for the
reallocation.

Use krealloc_array() for the additional NULL terminator.

Signed-off-by: Thorsten Blum <thorsten.blum@...ux.dev>

Changes in v2:
- Use krealloc_array() as suggested by Andy Shevchenko
- Link to v1: https://lore.kernel.org/r/20240823123300.37574-1-thorsten.blum@toblux.com/
