[Intel-gfx] [PATCH 2/2] drm/i915: Warn against variable length arrays

[Chris Wilson]

VLA are strongly discouraged in the kernel due to ambiguity they impose
on the limited stack space and security concerns over manipulating the
stack frame. Add -Wvla to our compiler flags so that CI rejects them.
