[PATCH v2][next] firewire: core: avoid -Wflex-array-member-not-at-end warning

"Gustavo A. R. Silva" <[email protected]>
Newsgroups gmane.linux.kernel,gmane.linux.kernel.firewire.devel
Message-ID <Z9NcB81yfPo-8o0h@kspp>
Use the `DEFINE_RAW_FLEX()` helper for an on-stack definition of
a flexible structure where the size of the flexible-array member
is known at compile-time, and refactor the rest of the code,
accordingly.

So, with these changes, fix the following warning:

drivers/firewire/core-cdev.c:1141:38: warning: structure containing a flexible array member is not at the end of another structure [-Wflex-array-member-not-at-end]

Changes in v2:
 - Adjust COUNT argument for DEFINE_RAW_FLEX() to 64. (Takashi)

v1:
 - Link: https://lore.kernel.org/linux-hardening/Z9AA9tAbcIcz6BMO@kspp/
