mei: hdcp: Replace one-element array with flexible-array member
There is a regular need in the kernel to provide a way to declare having a dynamically sized set of trailing elements in a structure. Kernel code should always use “flexible array members”[1] for these cases. The older style of one-element or zero-length arrays should no longer be used[2]. Also, make use of the array_size() helper instead of the open-coded version in memcpy(). These sorts of multiplication factors need to be wrapped in array_size(). And while there, use the preferred form for passing a size of a struct. The alternative form where struct name is spelled out hurts readability and introduces an opportunity for a bug when the pointer variable type is changed but the corresponding sizeof that is passed as argument is not.
