tty: hvc_console: use flexible array for outbuf
This means: * move outbuf to the end of struct hvc_struct and convert from pointer to flexible array (the structure is smaller now) * use struct_size() at the allocation site * align outbuf in the struct instead of ALIGN() at kzalloc() And apart from the above, use u8 instead of char (which are the same thanks to -funsigned-char). The former is now preferred over the latter. It makes the code easier to understand.
