Copying to a 16 byte structure into an 8-byte struct member
causes a compile-time warning:
| In file included from drivers/firmware/arm_ffa/driver.c:25:
| In function 'fortify_memcpy_chk',
| inlined from 'export_uuid' at include/linux/uuid.h:88:2,
| inlined from 'ffa_msg_send_direct_req2' at drivers/firmware/arm_ffa/driver.c:488:2:
| include/linux/fortify-string.h:571:25: error: call to '__write_overflow_field'
| declared with attribute warning: detected write beyond size of field
| (1st parameter); maybe use struct_group()? [-Werror=attribute-warning]
| __write_overflow_field(p_size_field, size);
Use a union for the conversion instead and make sure the byte order
is fixed in the process.

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.
