Set of array elements assigned with compound literals are not assigned with gcc-9.2 compiler

[Nagaraju Mekala via Gcc-help <gcc-help@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hello All,

Need help in resolving the below error:

The below code fails to assign values to a pointer variable with
gcc-9.2 compiler, same code works with gcc-8.2 compiler.

#define FACE_DELAYS

{0x0, 0x15, 0x0, 0x0, 0x34, 0x0, 0x35, 0x11, 0x15}

#define  BUS_SPEED 9

int temp_func()

{
  u32 *a;
  if (<cond>)
     abc = (u32 [BUS_SPEED]) FACE_DELAYS;

}

Note: The above code is just a sample of original testcase

The error is due change in  build_compound_literal function of gcc
(gcc/c/c-decl.c). Addition of below pushdecl() is causing the error.

 else if (current_function_decl && !current_scope->parm_flag)
    pushdecl (decl);

In GCC-8.2 we don't have above code, and it is generating memcpy as
expected, but in GCC-9.2 it is not generating Memcpy.
