PATCH 1/1 scsi: libosd: Remove VLA usage

On the quest to remove all VLAs from the kernel[1] this rearranges the code to avoid a VLA warning under -Wvla (gcc doesn't recognize "const" variables as not triggering VLA creation). Additionally cleans up variable naming to avoid 80 character column limit.

Applied to 4.18/scsi-queue. Thanks!
