[PATCHv2] usb: f_fs: refactor and document __ffs_ep0_read_events better

From: Michal Nazarewicz
Date: Wed Sep 10 2014 - 11:50:24 EST


Instead of using variable length array, use a static length equal to
the size of the ffs->ev.types array. This gets rid of a sparse warning:

drivers/usb/gadget/function/f_fs.c:401:44: warning:
Variable length array is used.

and makes it more explicit that the array has a very tight upper size
limit. Also add some more documentation about the ev.types array and
how its size is limited and affects the rest of the code.
