Linux kernel source tree
4af9939a49
This is a workaround to mitigate a compiler anomaly.
During LLVM toolchain compilation of this driver on s390x architecture, an
unreasonable __write_overflow_field warning occurs.
Contextually, chunk_index is restricted to 0, 1 or 2. By expanding these
possibilities, the compile warning is suppressed.
Fix follow error with clang-19 when -Werror:

1 error generated.
According to the testing, we can be fairly certain that this is a clang
compiler bug, impacting only clang-19 and below. Clang versions 20 and
21 do not exhibit this behavior.

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 reStructuredText 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.
