Because the array is used only during stream out, that is safe.

You can't keep 1 << 8, otherwise you won't stream all the bits.
I think you want to use 1 << ceil_log2 (MAX_MACHINE_MODE) on the stream out
side, stream that ceil_log2 (MAX_MACHINE_MODE) value somewhere at the start
of the mode table, add some field next to mode_table in lto_input_block
which will contain that value (and make sure to initialize it to
ceil_log2 (MAX_MACHINE_MODE) in case mode table isn't streamed in and use
1 << ...->mode_bits in e.g. bp_unpack_machine_mode
Or for cases where 8 was used before use ceil_log2 (MAX_MACHINE_MODE)
or mode_bits.

The 1 << 8 needs to be similarly 1 << ...->mode_bits or ...->num_modes (that
is also streamed out and in), it is sized by the host number of modes.
Whether it is unsigned char or unsigned short array depends on if we
want to support offloading targets with > 256 modes. If yes, it needs to
be unsigned short, if not, we should add an assertion (e.g. on streaming
in the LTO table) that MAX_MACHINE_MODE <= 256.
