Add the __counted_by compiler attribute to the flexible array member a_entries to improve access bounds-checking via CONFIG_UBSAN_BOUNDS and CONFIG_FORTIFY_SOURCE. Use struct_size() to calculate the number of bytes to allocate for new and cloned acls and remove the local size variables. Change the posix_acl_alloc() function parameter count from int to unsigned int to match posix_acl's a_count data type. Add identifier names to the function definition to silence two checkpatch warnings.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the reStructuredText markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
