As Stefan pointed out, I misremembered what clang can do specifically,
and it turns out that the variable-length array at the end of the
structure did not work (a flexible array would have worked here
but not solved the problem):
fs/ext4/mballoc.c:2303:17: error: fields must have a constant size:
'variable length array in structure' extension will never be supported
ext4_grpblk_t counters[blocksize_bits + 2];
This reverts part of my previous patch, using a fixed-size array
again, but keeping the check for the array overflow.
Fixes: 2df2c3402f ("ext4: fix warning about stack corruption")

Linux kernel ============ This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file. 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.
