Actually, I'm mistaken, on the build box it's running 11.3. So that
might explain it? I use 12.1 elsewhere.

It's possible this -Waddress error is new to gcc-12.

I try to keep most of my machines in sync just to avoid the pain of
different distro details, so I don't have gcc-11 around any more.

I'll get gcc-12 back on it - I originally swapped back to 11 for
building kernels to avoid spurious warnings with the new release.

On the topic of warnings, on my new build box I get a lot of these:

ld: warning: arch/x86/lib/putuser.o: missing .note.GNU-stack section implies executable stack
ld: NOTE: This behaviour is deprecated and will be removed in a future version of the linker

which ends up polluting the output quite a bit.
