The two most problematic virtchnl structures are virtchnl_rss_key and virtchnl_rss_lut. Their "flex" arrays have the type of u8, thus, when allocating / checking, the actual size is calculated as `sizeof + nents - 1 byte`. But their sizeof() is not 1 byte larger than the size of such structure with proper flex array, it's two bytes larger due to the padding. That said, their size is always 1 byte larger unless there are no tail elements -- then it's +2 bytes. Add virtchnl_struct_size() macro which will handle this case (and later other cases as well). Make its calling conv the same as we call struct_size() to allow it to be drop-in, even though it's unlikely to become possible to switch to generic API. The macro will calculate a proper size of a structure with a flex array at the end, so that it becomes transparent for the compilers, but add the difference from the old values, so that the real size of sorta-ABI-messages doesn't change. Use it on the allocation side in IAVF and the receiving side (defined as static inline in virtchnl.h) for the mentioned two structures.

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.
