[PATCH 4/5] mlxsw: spectrum_router: Annotate struct mlxsw_sp_nexthop_group_info with __counted_by

From: Kees Cook <hidden>
Date: 2023-09-29 18:08:01
Also in: linux-hardening, lkml, llvm
Subsystem: mellanox ethernet switch drivers, networking drivers, the rest · Maintainers: Ido Schimmel, Petr Machata, Andrew Lunn, "David S. Miller", Eric Dumazet, Jakub Kicinski, Paolo Abeni, Linus Torvalds

Prepare for the coming implementation by GCC and Clang of the __counted_by
attribute. Flexible array members annotated with __counted_by can have
their accesses bounds-checked at run-time checking via CONFIG_UBSAN_BOUNDS
(for array indexing) and CONFIG_FORTIFY_SOURCE (for strcpy/memcpy-family
functions).

As found with Coccinelle[1], add __counted_by for struct mlxsw_sp_nexthop_group_info.
