[dm-devel] [PATCH] LoadPin: Annotate struct dm_verity_loadpin_trusted_root_digest with __counted_by

[Kees Cook]

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 dm_verity_loadpin_trusted_root_digest.
Additionally, since the element count member must be set before accessing
the annotated flexible array member, move its initialization earlier.
