With gcc-14.1, there is a false-postive -Wuninitialized warning in
regcache_maple_drop:
drivers/base/regmap/regcache-maple.c: In function 'regcache_maple_drop':
drivers/base/regmap/regcache-maple.c:113:23: error: 'lower_index' is used uninitialized [-Werror=uninitialized]
113 | unsigned long lower_index, lower_last;
| ^~~~~~~~~~~
drivers/base/regmap/regcache-maple.c:113:36: error: 'lower_last' is used uninitialized [-Werror=uninitialized]
113 | unsigned long lower_index, lower_last;
| ^~~~~~~~~~
I've created a reduced test case to see if this needs to be reported
as a gcc, but it appears that the gcc-14.x branch already has a change
that turns this into a more sensible -Wmaybe-uninitialized warning, so
I ended up not reporting it so far.
The reduced test case also produces a warning for gcc-13 and gcc-12
but I don't see that with the version in the kernel.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the reStructuredText markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
