s390: workaround invalid gcc-11 out of bounds read warning
GCC 11.1.0 and 11.2.0 generate a wrong warning when compiling the kernel e.g. with allmodconfig: arch/s390/kernel/setup.c: In function ‘setup_lowcore_dat_on’: ./include/linux/fortify-string.h:57:33: error: ‘__builtin_memcpy’ reading 128 bytes from a region of size 0 [-Werror=stringop-overread] ... arch/s390/kernel/setup.c:526:9: note: in expansion of macro ‘memcpy’ 526 | memcpy(abs_lc->cregs_save_area, S390_lowcore.cregs_save_area, | ^~~~~~ This could be addressed by using absolute_pointer() with the S390_lowcore macro, but this is not a good idea since this generates worse code for performance critical paths. Therefore simply use a for loop to copy the array in question and get rid of the warning. Reported-by: Geert Uytterhoeven <geert@linux-m68k.org> Signed-off-by: Heiko Carstens <hca@linux.ibm.com>
