Thanks, Sudeep. I think what matters is 'W=1', which is translated to '-DKBUILD_EXTRA_WARN1'.
With KBUILD_EXTRA_WARN1 declared in linux-next, the warning is raised by __read_overflow2_field().

   static int ffa_msg_send_direct_req2(u16 src_id, u16 dst_id, const uuid_t *uuid,
                                     struct ffa_send_direct_data2 *data)
   {
         :
         if (ret.a0 == FFA_MSG_SEND_DIRECT_RESP2) {
                 memcpy(data, &ret.a4, sizeof(*data));
                 return 0;
         }

         return -EINVAL;
   }
