This (and an earlier 2017 commit) adds VLAs, which are being
removed[1] from the kernel:

drivers/s390/crypto/ap_bus.c:980:3: warning: ISO C90 forbids variable
length array âclrmâ [-Wvla]
drivers/s390/crypto/ap_bus.c:981:3: warning: ISO C90 forbids variable
length array âsetmâ [-Wvla]
drivers/s390/crypto/ap_bus.c:995:3: warning: ISO C90 forbids variable
length array âsetmâ [-Wvla]

static int process_mask_arg(const char *str,
unsigned long *bitmap, int bits,
struct mutex *lock)
...
DECLARE_BITMAP(clrm, bits);
DECLARE_BITMAP(setm, bits);

Can someone please adjust this to make these fixed size again?

Thanks!
