That would only make sense if pipes remained a pointer. A flex array
member allows combining allocations since it doesn't take up extra
space.
Technically kzalloc_flex is simpler but I assume a devm version of
that will be handled in another treewide commit.

With a flex array member, that's a compile time error, which I use as
a hint to complete the conversion.
