Hi Paul,

While building the kernel against next-master for arch arm64
> security/security.c:810:2: warning: ‘memcpy’ offset 32 is out of the bounds [0, 0] [-Warray-bounds]
warning is observed. On some other architectures like i386 and x86_64,
an error is observed. > arch/x86/include/asm/string_32.h:150:25: error:
‘__builtin_memcpy’ offset 32 is out of the bounds [0, 0]
[-Werror=array-bounds]

The links of the logs is listed below:

https://storage.kernelci.org/next/master/next-20231220/i386/i386_defconfig/gcc-10/logs/build-errors.log

A bisect done by building kernel against next-master for arch arm64
(full log below) identified this patch as introducing the failure.
