The following message shows up when compiling with W=1:
In function ‘fortify_memcpy_chk’,
inlined from ‘alx_get_ethtool_stats’ at drivers/net/ethernet/atheros/alx/ethtool.c:297:2:
./include/linux/fortify-string.h:592:4: error: call to ‘__read_overflow2_field’
declared with attribute warning: detected read beyond size of field (2nd parameter);
maybe use struct_group()? [-Werror=attribute-warning]
592 | __read_overflow2_field(q_size_field, size);
| ^~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
In order to get alx stats altogether, alx_get_ethtool_stats() reads
beyond hw->stats.rx_ok. Fix this warning by directly copying hw->stats,
and refactor the unnecessarily complicated BUILD_BUG_ON btw.

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.
