Is this a new regression from 5.15.0? Is it also present on Linus's tree?
This build warning is not present in Linus's tree. Following patch to be backported to 5.15.x

Fix the following [-Wstringop-overread] by passing in the variable instead of the value.
test_vsyscall.c: In function ‘test_process_vm_readv’: test_vsyscall.c:500:22: warning: ‘__builtin_memcmp_eq’ specified bound 4096 exceeds source size 0 [-Wstringop-overread] 500 | if (!memcmp(buf, (const void *)0xffffffffff600000, 4096)) { | ^~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
