Work for __counted_by on generic pointers in structures (not just
flexible array members) has started landing in Clang 19 (current tip of

to __counted_by to prevent the flexible array member's element type from
including a flexible array member itself such as:
struct foo {
int count;
char buf[];
};

Applied to for-linus/hardening, thanks!
