[PATCH] PCI: fix out-of-bounds stack access

From: Arnd Bergmann
Date: Fri Jul 25 2025 - 05:06:47 EST


From: Arnd Bergmann <arnd@xxxxxxxx>

The newly added PCI_FIND_NEXT_EXT_CAP function calls a helper that
stores a result using a 32-bit pointer, but passes a shorter local
variable into it. gcc-15 warns about this undefined behavior:

In function 'cdns_pcie_read_cfg',
inlined from 'cdns_pcie_find_capability' at drivers/pci/controller/cadence/pcie-cadence.c:31:9:
drivers/pci/controller/cadence/pcie-cadence.c:22:22: error: write of 32-bit data outside the bound of destination object, data truncated into 8-bit [-Werror=extra]
22 | *val = cdns_pcie_readb(pcie, where);
| ~~~~~^~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
In function 'dw_pcie_read_cfg',
inlined from 'dw_pcie_find_capability' at drivers/pci/controller/dwc/pcie-designware.c:234:9:
drivers/pci/controller/dwc/pcie-designware.c:225:22: error: write of 32-bit data outside the bound of destination object, data truncated into 8-bit [-Werror=extra]
225 | *val = dw_pcie_readb_dbi(pci, where);
| ~~~~~^~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Change the macro to remove the invalid cast and extend the target
variables as needed.
