[PATCH 07/15] drop_monitor: work around gcc-10 stringop-overflow warning

From: Arnd Bergmann
Date: Thu Apr 30 2020 - 17:33:45 EST


The current gcc-10 snapshot produces a false-positive warning:

net/core/drop_monitor.c: In function 'trace_drop_common.constprop':
cc1: error: writing 8 bytes into a region of size 0 [-Werror=stringop-overflow=]
In file included from net/core/drop_monitor.c:23:
include/uapi/linux/net_dropmon.h:36:8: note: at offset 0 to object 'entries' with size 4 declared here
36 | __u32 entries;
| ^~~~~~~

I reported this in the gcc bugzilla, but in case it does not get
fixed in the release, work around it by using a temporary variable.

Fixes: 9a8afc8d3962 ("Network Drop Monitor: Adding drop monitor implementation & Netlink protocol")
Link: https://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=94881
