What I suggest is this:

struct flow_actions {
       unsinged int action_count;
       struct flow_action action[0];
};


And then to have 
struct flow_actions *flow_actions_alloc(unsigned int action_count)
{
        return kzalloc(sizeof(struct flow_actions) + sizeof(struct flow_action) 
* action_count, ..);
}

Something like this.
