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.

Replace the chain of platform_get_resource() and devm_ioremap_resource()
with devm_platform_ioremap_resource().This allows to remove the local variable for (struct resource *), and
have one function call less.Signed-off-by: Masahiro Yamada

We don't need dev_err() messages when platform_get_irq() fails now that
platform_get_irq() prints an error message itself when something goes
wrong. Let's remove these prints with a simple semantic patch.//

While we're here, remove braces on if statements that only have one
