The hostap_80211_rx() function is supposed to set up the mac addresses for four possible cases, based on two bits of input data. For some reason, gcc decides that it's possible that none of the these four cases apply and the addresses remain uninitialized: drivers/net/wireless/intersil/hostap/hostap_80211_rx.c: In function ‘hostap_80211_rx’: arch/x86/include/asm/string_32.h:77:14: warning: ‘src’ may be used uninitialized in this function [-Wmaybe-uninitialized] drivers/net/wireless/intel/ipw2x00/libipw_rx.c: In function ‘libipw_rx’: arch/x86/include/asm/string_32.h:77:14: error: ‘dst’ may be used uninitialized in this function [-Werror=maybe-uninitialized] arch/x86/include/asm/string_32.h:78:22: error: ‘*((void *)&dst+4)’ may be used uninitialized in this function [-Werror=maybe-uninitialized] This warning is clearly nonsense, but changing the last case into 'default' makes it obvious to the compiler too, which avoids the warning and probably leads to better object code too. The same code is duplicated several times in the kernel, so this patch uses the same workaround for all copies. The exact configuration was hit only very rarely in randconfig builds and I only saw it in three drivers, but I assume that all of them are potentially affected, and it's better to keep the code consistent.
