Kuniyuki Iwashima e2bca4870f af_packet: Fix fortified memcpy() without flex array.
Sergei Trofimovich reported a regression [0] caused by commit a0ade8404c
("af_packet: Fix warning of fortified memcpy() in packet_getname().").

It introduced a flex array sll_addr_flex in struct sockaddr_ll as a
union-ed member with sll_addr to work around the fortified memcpy() check.

However, a userspace program uses a struct that has struct sockaddr_ll in
the middle, where a flex array is illegal to exist.

  include/linux/if_packet.h:24:17: error: flexible array member 'sockaddr_ll::<unnamed union>::<unnamed struct>::sll_addr_flex' not at end of 'struct packet_info_t'
     24 |                 __DECLARE_FLEX_ARRAY(unsigned char, sll_addr_flex);
        |                 ^~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

To fix the regression, let's go back to the first attempt [1] telling
memcpy() the actual size of the array.

README

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
