Replace the deprecated[1] use of a 1-element array in
struct MR_HOST_DEVICE_LIST with a modern flexible array.

One binary difference appears in megasas_host_device_list_query():

        struct MR_HOST_DEVICE_LIST *ci;
	...
        ci = instance->host_device_list_buf;
	...
        memset(ci, 0, sizeof(*ci));

The memset() clears only the non-flexible array fields. Looking at the
rest of the function, this appears to be fine: firmware is using this
region to communicate with the kernel, so it likely never made sense to
clear the first MR_HOST_DEVICE_LIST_ENTRY.

Applied to 6.12/scsi-staging, thanks!
