After fixing the trivial ones, this one remains:
drivers/gpu/drm/i915/display/intel_dp.c: In function
‘intel_dp_check_mst_status’:
drivers/gpu/drm/i915/display/intel_dp.c:4554:22: warning:

| ^~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
and I'm not fixing that one, because it actually looks like a valid
warning, and doesn't have an obvious fix.
That "esi[]" array is 14 bytes in size (DP_DPRX_ESI_LEN). So when it
does that "&esi[10]" and passes it in as an argument, then only 4
bytes remain of the array.
And drm_dp_channel_eq_ok() supposedly takes a "const u8
link_status[DP_LINK_STATUS_SIZE]", which is 6 bytes.
There may be some reason this is ok, but it does look a bit fishy, and
the compiler warning is appropriate.
