Kees Cook 5ea9dcfcd9 pid: Replace struct pid 1-element array with flex-array 
[ Upstream commit b69f0aeb06 ]

For pid namespaces, struct pid uses a dynamically sized array member,
"numbers".  This was implemented using the ancient 1-element fake
flexible array, which has been deprecated for decades.

Replace it with a C99 flexible array, refactor the array size
calculations to use struct_size(), and address elements via indexes.
Note that the static initializer (which defines a single element) works
as-is, and requires no special handling.

Without this, CONFIG_UBSAN_BOUNDS (and potentially
CONFIG_FORTIFY_SOURCE) will trigger bounds checks:

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
