Subject[PATCH v4] mm/sparsemem: Fix 'mem_section' will never be NULL gcc 12 warning
Date
The gcc 12 compiler reports a "'mem_section' will never be NULL"
warning on the following code:

static inline struct mem_section *__nr_to_section(unsigned long nr)
{
#ifdef CONFIG_SPARSEMEM_EXTREME
if (!mem_section)
return NULL;
#endif
if (!mem_section[SECTION_NR_TO_ROOT(nr)])
return NULL;
:

It happens with CONFIG_SPARSEMEM_EXTREME off. The mem_section
definition is

#ifdef CONFIG_SPARSEMEM_EXTREME
extern struct mem_section **mem_section;
#else
extern struct mem_section mem_section[NR_SECTION_ROOTS][SECTIONS_PER_ROOT];
#endif

In the !CONFIG_SPARSEMEM_EXTREME case, mem_section
is a static 2-dimensional array and so the check
"!mem_section[SECTION_NR_TO_ROOT(nr)]" doesn't make sense.

Fix this warning by moving the "!mem_section[SECTION_NR_TO_ROOT(nr)]"
check up inside the CONFIG_SPARSEMEM_EXTREME block and adding an explicit
NR_SECTION_ROOTS check to make sure that there is no out-of-bound
array access.

Fixes: 3e347261a80b ("sparsemem extreme implementation")
