Subject: [net-next 13/15] net/mlx5e: Replace 0-length array with flexible array

From: Kees Cook <keescook@...omium.org>

Zero-length arrays are deprecated[1]. Replace struct mlx5e_rx_wqe_cyc's
"data" 0-length array with a flexible array. Detected with GCC 13,
using -fstrict-flex-arrays=3:

drivers/net/ethernet/mellanox/mlx5/core/en_main.c: In function 'mlx5e_alloc_rq':
drivers/net/ethernet/mellanox/mlx5/core/en_main.c:827:42: warning: array subscript f is outside array bounds of 'struct mlx5_wqe_data_seg[0]' [-Warray-bounds=]
  827 |                                 wqe->data[f].byte_count = 0;
      |                                 ~~~~~~~~~^~~

                 from drivers/net/ethernet/mellanox/mlx5/core/en_main.c:42:
drivers/net/ethernet/mellanox/mlx5/core/en.h:250:39: note: while referencing 'data'

      |                                       ^~~~
