When the "storcli2 show" command is executed for eHBA-9600, mpi3mr
driver prints this WARNING:

  memcpy: detected field-spanning write (size 128) of single field "bsg_reply_buf->reply_buf" at drivers/scsi/mpi3mr/mpi3mr_app.c:1658 (size 1)
  WARNING: CPU: 0 PID: 12760 at drivers/scsi/mpi3mr/mpi3mr_app.c:1658 mpi3mr_bsg_request+0x6b12/0x7f10 [mpi3mr]

This is caused by the 128 bytes memcpy to the 1 byte size struct field
replay_buf in the struct mpi3mr_bsg_in_reply_buf. The field is intended
to be a variable length buffer, then the WARN is a false positive.

One approach to suppress the WARN is to remove the constant '1' from the
replay_buf array declaration to clarify the array size is variable.
However, the array is defined in include/uapi/scsi/scsi_bsg_mpi3mr.h and
the change will break UAPI compatibility. As another approach, divide
the memcpy call into two memcpy calls: one call for the 1 byte size of
the array declaration, and the other call for the left over. While at
it, replace the magic number 1 with sizeof(bsg_reply_buf->reply_buf);

The changes look good, however, The uapi structures are not used by
any broadcom applications so far and those use their internal files
and AFAIK there is no third party developed applications using uapi
headers, so can we declare this as a flexible length array to be more
clean?

Thanks for the comment. I was not sure if the structure is used by applications
or not. Since they are not used, I agree that that modification in the UAPI
header will be cleaner. Will send v2.
