gcc gets confused by the comparison of a pointer to an integer listeral,
with the assumption that this is an offset from a NULL pointer and that
dereferencing it is invalid:

In file included from arch/x86/boot/compressed/misc.c:18:
In function ‘parse_elf’,
    inlined from ‘extract_kernel’ at arch/x86/boot/compressed/misc.c:442:2:
arch/x86/boot/compressed/../string.h:15:23: error: ‘__builtin_memcpy’ reading 
64 bytes from a region of size 0 [-Werror=stringop-overread]
   15 | #define memcpy(d,s,l) __builtin_memcpy(d,s,l)
      |                       ^~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
arch/x86/boot/compressed/misc.c:283:9: note: in expansion of macro ‘memcpy’
  283 |         memcpy(&ehdr, output, sizeof(ehdr));
      |         ^~~~~~

I could not find any good workaround for this, but as this is only
a warning for a failure during early boot, removing the line entirely
works around the warning.

This should probably get addressed in gcc instead, before 11.1 gets
released.
