gcc-11 with KASAN on 32-bit arm produces a warning about a function that needs a lot of stack space: drivers/net/wireless/cisco/airo.c: In function 'setup_card.constprop': drivers/net/wireless/cisco/airo.c:3960:1: error: the frame size of 1512 bytes is larger than 1400 bytes [-Werror=frame-larger-than=] Most of this is from a single large structure that could be dynamically allocated or moved into the per-device structure. However, as the callers all seem to have a fairly well bounded call chain, the easiest change is to pull out the part of the function that needs the large variables into a separate function and mark that as noinline_for_stack. This does not reduce the total stack usage, but it gets rid of the warning and requires minimal changes otherwise.

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.
