nvmet-fc: use zero-sized array and struct_size() in kzalloc()



Update the code to use a zero-sized array instead of a pointer in
structure nvmet_fc_tgt_queue and use struct_size() in kzalloc().

Notice that one of the more common cases of allocation size calculations
is finding the size of a structure that has a zero-sized array at the end,
along with memory for some number of elements for that array. For example:

struct foo {
	int stuff;
	struct boo entry[];
};

instance = kzalloc(sizeof(struct foo) + sizeof(struct boo) * count, GFP_KERNEL);

Instead of leaving these open-coded and prone to type mistakes, we can now
use the new struct_size() helper:

instance = kzalloc(struct_size(instance, entry, count), GFP_KERNEL);

This code was detected with the help of Coccinelle.
