-Wflex-array-member-not-at-end was introduced in GCC-14, and we are
getting ready to enable it, globally.

Remove unused structures bss_bias_info and bss_bias, and member
bss in struct roam_ctrl_cmd.

After these changes, the size of struct roam_ctrl_cmd, along
with its member's offsets remain the same, hence the memory layout
doesn't change:

Before changes:
struct roam_ctrl_cmd {
        union {
                u8                 bssid[6];             /*     0     6 */
                u8                 roam_mode;            /*     0     1 */
                struct bss_bias_info bss;                /*     0     1 */
                struct low_rssi_scan_params params;      /*     0     8 */
        } info;                                          /*     0     8 */
        u8                         roam_ctrl;            /*     8     1 */

        /* size: 9, cachelines: 1, members: 2 */
        /* last cacheline: 9 bytes */
} __attribute__((__packed__));

After changes:
struct roam_ctrl_cmd {
        union {
                u8                 bssid[6];             /*     0     6 */
                u8                 roam_mode;            /*     0     1 */
                struct low_rssi_scan_params params;      /*     0     8 */
        } info;                                          /*     0     8 */
        u8                         roam_ctrl;            /*     8     1 */

        /* size: 9, cachelines: 1, members: 2 */
        /* last cacheline: 9 bytes */
} __attribute__((__packed__));

With these changes fix the following warning:

drivers/net/wireless/ath/ath6kl/wmi.h:1658:20: warning: structure containing a 
flexible array member is not at the end of another structure 
[-Wflex-array-member-not-at-end]

Changes in v3:
 - Remove unused structures. (Jeff)

Changes in v2:
 - Create new separate struct bss_bias_info_hdr, and use
   transparent struct members (in struct bss_bias_info)
   instead of rearranging members in struct roam_ctrl_cmd.
 - Update subject line - Add 'wifi:' prefix.
