Patch series "Add __alloc_size()", v3.
GCC and Clang both use the "alloc_size" attribute to assist with bounds
checking around the use of allocation functions. Add the attribute,
adjust the Makefile to silence needless warnings, and add the hints to
the allocators where possible. These changes have been in use for a
while now in GrapheneOS.
This patch (of 8):
After adding __alloc_size attributes to the allocators, GCC 9.3 (but not
later) may incorrectly evaluate the arguments to check_copy_size(),
getting seemingly confused by the size being returned from array_size().
Instead, perform the calculation once, which both makes the code more
readable and avoids the bug in GCC.

But the allocation size and the copy size are identical:
transfer = vmalloc(array_size(sizeof(*transfer), transaction.count));
if (!transfer)
return -ENOMEM;
if (unlikely(copy_from_user(transfer,
(void __user *)(uintptr_t)transaction.block,
array_size(sizeof(*transfer), transaction.count)))) {
