[ Upstream commit f6b5f1a569 ]
absolute_pointer() disassociates a pointer from its originating symbol
type and context. Use it to prevent compiler warnings/errors such as
drivers/net/ethernet/i825xx/82596.c: In function 'i82596_probe':
arch/m68k/include/asm/string.h:72:25: error:
'__builtin_memcpy' reading 6 bytes from a region of size 0 [-Werror=stringop-overread]
Such warnings may be reported by gcc 11.x for string and memory
operations on fixed addresses.

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.
