GCC-13 (and Clang) does not like having a partially allocated object,
since it cannot reason about it for bounds checking.
Notice that the compiler is legitimately complaining about accessing
an object (params, in this case) for which not enough memory was
allocated.
The object is of size 20 bytes:
struct ec_params_vbnvcontext {
uint32_t op; /* 0 4 */
uint8_t block[16]; /* 4 16 */
/* size: 20, cachelines: 1, members: 2 */
/* last cacheline: 20 bytes */
};
but only 16 bytes are allocated:
sizeof(struct ec_response_vbnvcontext) == 16
In this case, as only enough space for the op field is allocated,
we can use an object of type uint32_t instead of a whole
struct ec_params_vbnvcontext (for which not enough memory is
allocated).
Fix the following warning seen under GCC 13:
drivers/platform/chrome/cros_ec_vbc.c: In function ‘vboot_context_read’:
drivers/platform/chrome/cros_ec_vbc.c:36:15: warning: array subscript ‘struct ec_params_vbnvcontext[1]’ is partly outside array bounds of ‘unsigned char[36]’ [-Warray-bounds=]
36 | params->op = EC_VBNV_CONTEXT_OP_READ;

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.
