I think this fix is in the RDMA PR i just sent you:

    RDMA/irdma: avoid fortify-string warning in irdma_clr_wqes
    
    Commit df8fc4e934c1 ("kbuild: Enable -fstrict-flex-arrays=3") triggers a
    warning for fortified memset():
    
    In function 'fortify_memset_chk',
        inlined from 'irdma_clr_wqes' at drivers/infiniband/hw/irdma/uk.c:103:4:
    include/linux/fortify-string.h:493:25: error: call to '__write_overflow_field' declared with attribute warning: detected write b>
      493 |                         __write_overflow_field(p_size_field, size);
          |                         ^~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
    
    The problem here isthat the inner array only has four 8-byte elements, so
    clearing 4096 bytes overflows that. As this structure is part of an outer
    array, change the code to pass a pointer to the irdma_qp_quanta instead,
    and change the size argument for readability, matching the comment above
    it.
