[PATCHv3] ata: libahci_platform: use flex array for platform PHYs
From: Rosen Penev
Date: Mon Mar 30 2026 - 16:38:06 EST
Modify struct ahci_host_priv to use a flexible array member for an adapter port
PHYs and use struct_size to combine the allocation of this array together with
the adapter private data structure. __counted_by() annotation is added for the
phys field to support runtime analysis.
