The code really *does* compile to that insane a3 14 00 00 00 mov %eax,0x14 by your compiler. That's the asc_dvc_varp->overrun_buf = kzalloc(ASC_OVERRUN_BSIZE, GFP_KERNEL); thing, and gcc seems to have decided that it can statically prove that asc_dvc_varp is NULL. Quite frankly, I don't see that being true. But you have some patches in your tree that I haven't followed, so.. Are you sure the patches applied to the right spot? The patch I saw added that kzalloc() to the _end_ of the function (long after asc_dvc_varp was initialized), maybe that one got mis-applied? Or maybe your compiler version is simply totally broken.
