which now breaks the build in next-20240801:

  fs/netfs/buffered_read.c:304:7: error: variable 'slice' is used uninitialized whenever 'if' condition is false [-Werror,-Wsometimes-uninitialized]
    304 |                 if (source == NETFS_INVALID_READ)
        |                     ^~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
  fs/netfs/buffered_read.c:308:11: note: uninitialized use occurs here
    308 |                 size -= slice;
        |                         ^~~~~
  fs/netfs/buffered_read.c:304:3: note: remove the 'if' if its condition is always true

        |                               = 0
  1 error generated.

If source has to be one of these values, perhaps switching to a switch
statement and having a default with a WARN_ON() or something would
convey that to the compiler?
