etherdevice: Adjust ether_addr* prototypes to silence -Wstringop-overead
With GCC 12, -Wstringop-overread was warning about an implicit cast from char[6] to char[8]. However, the extra 2 bytes are always thrown away, alignment doesn't matter, and the risk of hitting the edge of unallocated memory has been accepted, so this prototype can just be converted to a regular char *. Silences: net/core/dev.c: In function ‘bpf_prog_run_generic_xdp’: net/core/dev.c:4618:21: warning: ‘ether_addr_equal_64bits’ reading 8 bytes from a region of size 6 [-Wstringop-overread] 4618 | orig_host = ether_addr_equal_64bits(eth->h_dest, > skb->dev->dev_addr); | ^~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ net/core/dev.c:4618:21: note: referencing argument 1 of type ‘const u8[8]’ {aka ‘const unsigned char[8]’} net/core/dev.c:4618:21: note: referencing argument 2 of type ‘const u8[8]’ {aka ‘const unsigned char[8]’} In file included from net/core/dev.c:91: include/linux/etherdevice.h:375:20: note: in a call to function ‘ether_addr_equal_64bits’ 375 | static inline bool ether_addr_equal_64bits(const u8 addr1[6+2], | ^~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Reported-by: Marc Kleine-Budde <mkl@pengutronix.de> Tested-by: Marc Kleine-Budde <mkl@pengutronix.de> Link: https://lore.kernel.org/netdev/20220212090811.uuzk6d76agw2vv73@pengutronix.de Cc: Jakub Kicinski <kuba@kernel.org> Cc: "David S.
