[ Upstream commit 625395c4a0f4775e0fe00f616888d2e6c1ba49db ]
GCC-12 started triggering a new warning:
arch/x86/mm/numa.c: In function ‘cpumask_of_node’:
arch/x86/mm/numa.c:916:39: warning: the comparison will always evaluate as ‘false’ for the address of ‘node_to_cpumask_map’ will never be NULL [-Waddress]
916 | if (node_to_cpumask_map[node] == NULL) {
| ^~
node_to_cpumask_map is of type cpumask_var_t[].
When CONFIG_CPUMASK_OFFSTACK is set, cpumask_var_t is typedef'd to a
pointer for dynamic allocation, else to an array of one element. The
"wicked game" can be checked on line 700 of include/linux/cpumask.h.
The original code in debug_cpumask_set_cpu() and cpumask_of_node() were
probably written by the original authors with CONFIG_CPUMASK_OFFSTACK=y
(i.e. dynamic allocation) in mind, checking if the cpumask was available
via a direct NULL check.
When CONFIG_CPUMASK_OFFSTACK is not set, GCC gives the above warning
while compiling the kernel.
Fix that by using cpumask_available(), which does the NULL check when
CONFIG_CPUMASK_OFFSTACK is set, otherwise returns true. Use it wherever
such checks are made.
Conditional definitions of cpumask_available() can be found along with
the definition of cpumask_var_t. Check the cpumask.h reference mentioned
above.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
