I'm pretty sure it is a false warning, but just for the record (and so
someone can prove me wrong), here's my analysis. Relevant code
(drivers/net/ethernet/broadcom/tg3.c):
12030 if ((b_offset = (offset & 3))) {
12031 /* adjustments to start on required 4 byte boundary */
12032 ret = tg3_nvram_read_be32(tp, offset-b_offset, &start);
12033 if (ret)
12034 return ret;
12035 len += b_offset;
12036 offset &= ~3;
12037 if (len < 4)
12038 len = 4;
12039 }
12052 if (b_offset || odd_len) {
12053 buf = kmalloc(len, GFP_KERNEL);
12054 if (!buf)
12055 return -ENOMEM;
12056 if (b_offset)
12057 memcpy(buf, &start, 4);
12058 if (odd_len)
12059 memcpy(buf+len-4, &end, 4);
12060 memcpy(buf + b_offset, data, eeprom->len);
12061 }
So first off, the real problematic line would be 12057. I'm guessing
that the now known alignment of buf made gcc replace the memcpy call
with effectively "*(__be32*)buf = start;", which then triggered the
warning. But the memcpy is guarded by b_offset != 0, and in that case we
know start is initialized by tg3_nvram_read_be32 (or that we'd taken the
early return).
