如何在可变深度多维数组中删除空子数组？

Question

我有一个数组，但我不知道如何删除所有空的'subs'子数组。

Array
(
    [3] => Array
        (
            [sponsorid] => 2
            [user_id] => 3
            [subs] => Array
                (
                    [4] => Array
                        (
                            [sponsorid] => 3
                            [user_id] => 4
                            [subs] => Array
                                (

递归是必要的，因为底层子阵列具有可变深度。

代码：（Demo）

function removeEmptySubs($array){
    foreach ($array as &$a){  // make $a modifiable by reference
        if(!sizeof($a['subs'])){  // check if 'subs' array is empty
            unset($a['subs']);    // remove it
        }else{
            $a['subs']=removeEmptySubs($a['subs']); // recurse
        }
    }
    return $array;
}

$array=[
    3 => [
            'sponsorid' => 2,
            'user_id' => 3,
            'subs' => [
                    4 => [
                            'sponsorid' => 3,
                            'user_id' => 4,
                            'subs' => [
                                    5 => [
                                            'sponsorid' => 4,
                                            'user_id' => 5,
                                            'subs' => [
                                                    6 => [
                                                            'sponsorid' => 5,
                                                            'user_id' => 6,

                                                                ]
                                                        ],
                                                    9 => [
                                                            'sponsorid' => 5,
                                                            'user_id' => 9,
                                                            'subs' => [
                                                                ]
                                                        ],
                                                    10 => [
                                                            'sponsorid' => 5,
                                                            'user_id' => 10,
                                                            'subs' => [
                                                                ]
                                                        ]
                                                ]
                                        ],
                                    12 => [
                                            'sponsorid' => 4,
                                            'user_id' => 12,
                                            'subs' => [
                                                ]
                                        ]
                                ]
                        ],
                    11 => [
                            'sponsorid' => 3,

var_export(removeEmptySubs($array));

输出：

              ),
              9 => 
              array (
