The FPU_STAT_CREATE_EX() macro used 114 times in debugfs_fpuemu() declares a 32 byte char array to hold the name of a debugfs file. Since each use of the macro declares a new char array out of the scope of all the other uses, we end up with an unnecessarily large stack frame of 3648 bytes (ie. 114*32) plus the size of 2 pointers (fpuemu_debugfs_base_dir & fpuemu_debugfs_inst_dir). This is enough to trigger the frame size warnings from GCC in common configurations. Avoid the unnecessary stack bloat by using a single name char array which each usage of FPU_STAT_CREATE_EX() will reinitialize via the strcpy() in adjust_instruction_counter_name().

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.
