Prepare for the coming implementation by GCC and Clang of the __counted_by attribute. Flexible array members annotated with __counted_by can have their accesses bounds-checked at run-time checking via CONFIG_UBSAN_BOUNDS (for array indexing) and CONFIG_FORTIFY_SOURCE (for strcpy/memcpy-family functions).
As found with Coccinelle[1], add __counted_by for struct ip6_sf_socklist. [1] https://github.com/kees/kernel-tools/blob/trunk/coccinelle/examples/counted_by.cocci Cc: "David S.
