Apologies for the delay. I realised my compiler actually didn't support
the attribute, so I had to install clang 19 from git.

After doing so, I saw this warning about ATOM_PPLIB_STATE_V2.

drivers/gpu/drm/amd/amdgpu/../include/pptable.h:483:5: warning: 'counted_by' should not be applied to an array with element of unknown size because 'ATOM_PPLIB_STATE_V2'
 (aka 'struct _ATOM_PPLIB_STATE_V2') is a struct type with a flexible array member. This will be an error in a future compiler version [-Wbounds-safety-counted-by-elt-type-unknown-size]
  483 |     ATOM_PPLIB_STATE_V2 states[] __counted_by(ucNumEntries);
      |     ^~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Thus I'll remove the __counted_by() from that one.

If I'm not mistaken, for a UCHAR flexible array such as clockInfo[],
we would then need to multiply the count by the size, which results in:

drivers/gpu/drm/amd/amdgpu/../include/pptable.h:494:36: error: 'counted_by' argument must be a simple declaration reference
  494 |     UCHAR clockInfo[] __counted_by(ucEntrySize * ucNumEntries);
      |                                    ^~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
./include/linux/compiler_attributes.h:105:62: note: expanded from macro '__counted_by'
  105 | # define __counted_by(member)           __attribute__((__counted_by__(member)))
      |                                                                       ^~~~~~
