From: Arnd Bergmann <arnd@arndb.de> The coming gcc release introduces a new warning for string operations reading beyond the end of a fixed-length object. After testing randconfig kernels for a while, think I have patches for any such warnings that came up on x86, arm and arm64. Most of these warnings are false-positive ones, either gcc warning about something that is entirely correct, or about something that looks suspicious but turns out to be correct after all. The two patches for the i915 driver look like something that might be actual bugs, but I am not sure about those either. We probably want some combination of workaround like the ones I post here and changes to gcc to have fewer false positives in the release. I'm posting the entire set of workaround that give me a cleanly building kernel for reference here.
