[ Upstream commit 41e1992665a2701fa025a8b76970c43b4148446f ]
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.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
