The current codebase makes use of the zero-length array language
extension to the C90 standard, but the preferred mechanism to declare
variable-length types such as these ones is a flexible array member[1][2],
introduced in C99:
struct foo {
int stuff;
struct boo array[];
};
By making use of the mechanism above, we will get a compiler warning
in case the flexible array does not occur last in the structure, which
will help us prevent some kind of undefined behavior bugs from being
inadvertently introduced[3] to the codebase from now on.
Also, notice that, dynamic memory allocations won't be affected by
this change:
"Flexible array members have incomplete type, and so the sizeof operator
may not be applied. As a quirk of the original implementation of
zero-length arrays, sizeof evaluates to zero."[1]
This issue was found with the help of Coccinelle.

Move LDISC_AUTOLOAD ahead of the Serial drivers menu.
Move the Serial drivers menu ahead of the Non-standard serial port
support menu.
Move NOZOMI out of the SERIAL_NONSTANDARD area since it does not
depend on SERIAL_NONSTANDARD and it breaks the SERIAL_NONSTANDARD
menu list.
Alphabetize the remaining drivers (in tty/Kconfig) by their prompt strings.
[The drivers in tty/hvc/Kconfig and tty/serial/Kconfig have not
been alphabetized.]

Pull ARM SoC fixes from Olof Johansson:
"We've been accruing these for a couple of weeks, so the batch is a bit
bigger than usual.
Largest delta is due to a led-bl driver that is added -- there was a
miscommunication before the merge window and the driver didn't make it
in. Due to this, the platforms needing it regressed. At this point, it
seemed easier to add the new driver than unwind the changes.
Besides that, there are a handful of various fixes:
- AMD tee memory leak fix
- A handful of fixlets for i.MX SCU communication
- A few maintainers woke up and realized DEBUG_FS had been missing
for a while, so a few updates of that.
... and the usual collection of smaller fixes to various platforms"

There is a recipe to deadlock the kernel: submit a timeout sqe with a
linked_timeout (e.g. test_single_link_timeout_ception() from liburing),
and SIGKILL the process.
Then, io_kill_timeouts() takes @ctx->completion_lock, but the timeout
isn't flagged with REQ_F_COMP_LOCKED, and will try to double grab it
during io_put_free() to cancel the linked timeout. Probably, the same
can happen with another io_kill_timeout() call site, that is
io_commit_cqring().
