[PATCH v3 10/12] crypto: LLVMLinux: Remove VLAIS usage from libcrc32c.c

From: <hidden>
Date: 2014-09-15 07:32:00
Also in: dm-devel, linux-btrfs, linux-crypto, lkml
Subsystem: library code, the rest · Maintainers: Andrew Morton, Linus Torvalds

From: Jan-Simon Möller <redacted>

Replaced the use of a Variable Length Array In Struct (VLAIS) with a C99
compliant equivalent. This patch allocates the appropriate amount of memory
using a char array using the SHASH_DESC_ON_STACK macro.

The new code can be compiled with both gcc and clang.
