Add the __counted_by compiler attribute to the flexible array member
inodes to improve access bounds-checking via CONFIG_UBSAN_BOUNDS and
CONFIG_FORTIFY_SOURCE.

Remove the now obsolete comment on the count field.

Refactor ext4_expand_inode_array() by assigning count before copying any
data using memcpy().

Use struct_size() instead of offsetof() and remove the local variable
count.

Increment count before adding a new inode to the inodes array.

Compile-tested only.

The line above is not really necessary if you copy `*ea_inode_array` at once 
like

memcpy(... , struct_size(new_array, inodes, (*ea_inode_array)->count));

or like

memcpy(... , struct_size(*ea_inode_array, inodes, (*ea_inode_array)->count));

whichever works.

+               memcpy(new_array, *ea_inode_array,
+                      struct_size(new_array, inodes, new_array->count));
                kfree(*ea_inode_array);
                *ea_inode_array = new_array;
        }
-       (*ea_inode_array)->inodes[(*ea_inode_array)->count++] = inode;
+       (*ea_inode_array)->count++;
+       (*ea_inode_array)->inodes[(*ea_inode_array)->count - 1] = inode;
This looks good, thanks!
