PATCH 1/1 iommu/virtio: Add __counted_by for struct viommu_request and use struct_size()

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 via CONFIG_UBSAN_BOUNDS (for array indexing) and CONFIG_FORTIFY_SOURCE (for strcpy/memcpy-family functions).

While there, use struct_size() helper, instead of the open-coded version, to calculate the size for the allocation of the whole flexible structure, including of course, the flexible-array member.

This code was found with the help of Coccinelle, and audited and fixed manually.

The __counted_by annotation and the usage of struct_size look right!
