Global `-Warray-bounds` enablement revealed some problems, one of which is the way we define and use AQC rules messages. In fact, they have a shared header, followed by the actual message, which can be of one of several different formats. So it is straightforward enough to define that header as a separate struct and then embed it into message structures as needed, but currently all the formats reside in one union coupled with the header. Then, the code allocates only the memory needed for a particular message format, leaving the union potentially incomplete. There are no actual reads or writes beyond the end of an allocated chunk, but at the same time, the whole implementation is fragile and backed by an equilibrium rather than strong type and memory checks. Define the structures the other way around: one for the common header and the rest for the actual formats with the header embedded. There are no places where several union members would be used at the same time anyway. This allows to use proper struct_size() and let the compiler know what is going to be done. Finally, unsilence `-Warray-bounds` back for ice_switch.c. Other little things worth mentioning: * &ice_sw_rule_vsi_list_query is not used anywhere, remove it. It's weird anyway to talk to hardware with purely kernel types (bitmaps); * expand the ICE_SW_RULE_*_SIZE() macros to pass a structure variable name to struct_size() to let it do strict typechecking; * rename ice_sw_rule_lkup_rx_tx::hdr to ::hdr_data to keep ::hdr for the header structure to have the same name for it constistenly everywhere; * drop the duplicate of %ICE_SW_RULE_RX_TX_NO_HDR_SIZE residing in ice_switch.h.

README
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 Restructured Text 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.
