wifi: ath9k: fix clang-specific fortify warnings
[ Upstream commit 95f97fe ] When compiling with clang 16.0.6 and CONFIG_FORTIFY_SOURCE=y, I've noticed the following (somewhat confusing due to absence of an actual source code location): In file included from drivers/net/wireless/ath/ath9k/debug.c:17: In file included from ./include/linux/slab.h:16: In file included from ./include/linux/gfp.h:7: In file included from ./include/linux/mmzone.h:8: In file included from ./include/linux/spinlock.h:56: In file included from ./include/linux/preempt.h:79: In file included from ./arch/x86/include/asm/preempt.h:9: In file included from ./include/linux/thread_info.h:60: In file included from ./arch/x86/include/asm/thread_info.h:53: In file included from ./arch/x86/include/asm/cpufeature.h:5: In file included from ./arch/x86/include/asm/processor.h:23: In file included from ./arch/x86/include/asm/msr.h:11: In file included from ./arch/x86/include/asm/cpumask.h:5: In file included from ./include/linux/cpumask.h:12: In file included from ./include/linux/bitmap.h:11: In file included from ./include/linux/string.h:254: ./include/linux/fortify-string.h:592:4: warning: call to '__read_overflow2_field' declared with 'warning' attribute: detected read beyond size of field (2nd parameter); maybe use struct_group()? [-Wattribute-warning] __read_overflow2_field(q_size_field, size); In file included from drivers/net/wireless/ath/ath9k/htc_drv_debug.c:17: In file included from drivers/net/wireless/ath/ath9k/htc.h:20: In file included from ./include/linux/module.h:13: In file included from ./include/linux/stat.h:19: In file included from ./include/linux/time.h:60: In file included from ./include/linux/time32.h:13: In file included from ./include/linux/timex.h:67: In file included from ./arch/x86/include/asm/timex.h:5: In file included from ./arch/x86/include/asm/processor.h:23: In file included from ./arch/x86/include/asm/msr.h:11: In file included from ./arch/x86/include/asm/cpumask.h:5: In file included from ./include/linux/cpumask.h:12: In file included from ./include/linux/bitmap.h:11: In file included from ./include/linux/string.h:254: ./include/linux/fortify-string.h:592:4: warning: call to '__read_overflow2_field' declared with 'warning' attribute: detected read beyond size of field (2nd parameter); maybe use struct_group()? [-Wattribute-warning] __read_overflow2_field(q_size_field, size); The compiler actually complains on 'ath9k_get_et_strings()' and 'ath9k_htc_get_et_strings()' due to the same reason: fortification logic inteprets call to 'memcpy()' as an attempt to copy the whole array from it's first member and so issues an overread warning. These warnings may be silenced by passing an address of the whole array and not the first member to 'memcpy()'.
