Hello:

This patch was applied to netdev/net-next.git (master)
by David S. Miller [off-list ref]:

When checking an address is located in a global data section also check
for the .bss section as global variables initialized to 0 can be in
there (-fzero-initialized-in-bss).

This was found when looking at ensure_safe_net_sysctl which was failing
to detect non-init sysctl pointing to a global data section when the
data was in the .bss section.

Here is the summary with links:
