It's also a false positive in that technically the mailbox message will always have at least one bit set in "mask". However, I don't see how the compiler could know about it, given that the data comes from an external source, so I think this makes sense as a hint to the compiler. So: Acked-by: Thierry Reding <treding@xxxxxxxxxx> Can you provide more detail on what exact version of which compiler you used that triggered this? I wonder why it's never presented itself with the compiler that I use. Thierry
