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.

The Marvell Universal Message Interface (UMI) defines a messaging
interface between host and Marvell products (Plato, for example). It
considers situations of limited system resource and optimized system
performance.
UMI driver translates host request to message and sends message
to FW via UMI, FW receives message and processes it, then sends response
to UMI driver.
FW generates an interrupt when it needs to send information or
response to UMI driver
