The compiler attribute __counted_by_ptr can be used by KASAN and UBSAN to detect out-of-bounds accesses to pointer fields in structs where a corresponding element count field is available.
In "struct iio_gts", there are multiple pointer fields associated with an element count. This patch annotates these pointer fields with "__counted_by_ptr" to improve runtime safety: - 'hwgain_table': counted by 'num_hwgain' - 'itime_table': counted by 'num_itime' - 'per_time_avail_scale_tables': counted by 'num_itime' - 'avail_all_scales_table': counted by 'num_avail_all_scales' - 'avail_time_tables': counted by 'num_avail_time_tables' To ensure that the count is set correctly before any pointer is accessed or assigned, we update "iio_init_iio_gts()" to set the counts prior to assigning the pointers.
