[PATCH v2][next] cxgb4: Avoid a -Wflex-array-member-not-at-end warning
From: Gustavo A. R. Silva
Date: Mon Feb 03 2025 - 21:54:59 EST
-Wflex-array-member-not-at-end was introduced in GCC-14, and we are
getting ready to enable it, globally.
Move the conflicting declaration to the end of the structure. Notice
that `struct ethtool_dump` is a flexible structure --a structure that
contains a flexible-array member.
Fix the following warning:
./drivers/net/ethernet/chelsio/cxgb4/cxgb4.h:1215:29: warning: structure containing a flexible array member is not at the end of another structure [-Wflex-array-member-not-at-end]
