From: Arnd Bergmann <arnd@arndb.de>

The newly introduced TRAMP_VALIAS definition causes a build warning
with clang-14:

arch/arm64/include/asm/vectors.h:66:31: error: arithmetic on a null pointer treated as a cast from integer to pointer is a GNU extension [-Werror,-Wnull-pointer-arithmetic]
                return (char *)TRAMP_VALIAS + SZ_2K * slot;

Change the addition to something clang does not complain about.

Fixes: bd09128d16fa ("arm64: Add percpu vectors for EL1")

I see this warning on 5.17-rc8, but did not test it on linux-next,
which may already have a fix.

It is? Good to know!
(clang 11 doesn't seem to be so fussy)

Just for some more background:
TRAMP_VALIAS existed before, but it wasn't defined if KPTI is disabled at compile time, you can't
do that without CONFIG_EXPERT.
I thought these dummy definitions would be cleaner than #ifdef'ing the code.

Thanks!

Tangentially, all the other GNU extensions we depend on throughout Linux 
are also GNU extensions. Do we know what's special about this one?

My first thought is that -Wnull-pointer-arithmetic should be in the
-Wgnu flag group, such that -Wno-gnu (as set by Kbuild) implies
-Wno-null-pointer-arithmetic.

One issue seems to be that -Wnull-pointer-arithmetic seems to control
at least 2 different checks in clang.

https://godbolt.org/z/hdYYejj3d

So it's likely these two checks should have 2 distinct flags, such
that the warning we're observing can be grouped under -Wgnu.
