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.

This sorts the actual field names too, potentially causing even more
chaos and confusion at merge time if you have edited the MAINTAINERS
file. But the end result is a more consistent layout, and hopefully
it's a one-time pain minimized by doing this just before the -rc1
release.This was entirely scripted:
./scripts/parse-maintainers.pl --input=MAINTAINERS --output=MAINTAINERS --order

They are all supposed to be sorted, but people who add new entries don't
always know the alphabet. Plus sometimes the entry names get edited,
and people don't then re-order the entry.Let's see how painful this will be for merging purposes (the MAINTAINERS
file is often edited in various different trees), but Joe claims there's
relatively few patches in -next that touch this, and doing it just
before -rc1 is likely the best time. Fingers crossed.This was scripted with
/scripts/parse-maintainers.pl --input=MAINTAINERS --output=MAINTAINERS
but then I also ended up manually upper-casing a few entry names that
stood out when looking at the end result.Requested-by: Joe Perches

Pull x86 fixes from Thomas Gleixner:
"A set of three patches to fix the fallout of the newly added split
lock detection feature.It addressed the case where a KVM guest triggers a split lock #AC and
KVM reinjects it into the guest which is not prepared to handle it.Add proper sanity checks which prevent the unconditional injection
into the guest and handles the #AC on the host side in the same way as
user space detections are handled. Depending on the detection mode it
either warns and disables detection for the task or kills the task if
the mode is set to fatal"* tag 'x86-urgent-2020-04-12' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip:

output was corrupted.- Prevent further silent ucount corruption by adding a BUILD_BUG_ON()

Two types of #AC can be generated in Intel CPUs:
1. legacy alignment check #AC
2. split lock #ACReflect #AC back into the guest if the guest has legacy alignment checks
enabled or if split lock detection is disabled.If the #AC is not a legacy one and split lock detection is enabled, then
invoke handle_guest_split_lock() which will either warn and disable split
lock detection for this task or force SIGBUS on it.[ tglx: Switch it to handle_guest_split_lock() and rename the misnamed

Emulate split-lock accesses as writes if split lock detection is on
to avoid #AC during emulation, which will result in a panic(). This
should never occur for a well-behaved guest, but a malicious guest can
manipulate the TLB to trigger emulation of a locked instruction[1].More discussion can be found at [2][3].
