pcmcia: Replace zero-length array with flexible-array

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]

sizeof(flexible-array-member) triggers a warning because flexible array
members have incomplete type[1]. There are some instances of code in
which the sizeof operator is being incorrectly/erroneously applied to
zero-length arrays and the result is zero. Such instances may be hiding
some bugs. So, this work (flexible-array member conversions) will also
help to get completely rid of those sorts of issues.

This issue was found with the help of Coccinelle.

pcmcia: remove cs_types.h

Remove cs_types.h which is no longer needed: Most definitions aren't
used at all, a few can be made away with, and two remaining definitions
(typedefs, unfortunatley) may be moved to more specific places.

pcmcia: remove unused argument to pcmcia_parse_tuple()

Since we're just parsing the tuple being passed to this function, we don't
need any device-specific information.

Also, remove the call to pcmcia_validate_cis() from pcmciamtd.c, since it
is already called by the PCMCIA core.

pcmcia: pcmcia_config_loop() improvement by passing vcc

By passing the current Vcc setting to the pcmcia_config_loop callback
function, we can remove pcmcia_get_configuration_info() calls from many

pcmcia: pcmcia_config_loop() default CIS entry handling

Many drivers use the default CIS entry within their pcmcia_config_loop()
callback function. Therefore, factor the default CIS entry handling out.

pcmcia: add pcmcia_loop_config() helper

By calling pcmcia_loop_config(), a pcmcia driver can iterate over all
available configuration options. During a driver's probe() phase, one
doesn't need to use pcmcia_get_{first,next}_tuple, pcmcia_get_tuple_data
and pcmcia_parse_tuple directly in most if not all cases.

in cistpl.c, only do so once. Also, cisdump_t is now only used by the

Linux-2.6.12-rc2

Initial git repository build. I'm not bothering with the full history,
even though we have it. We can create a separate "historical" git
archive of that later if we want to, and in the meantime it's about
3.2GB when imported into git - space that would just make the early
git days unnecessarily complicated, when we don't have a lot of good
infrastructure for it.

Let it rip!
