[ Upstream commit 7aefd8b53815274f3ef398d370a3c9b27dd9f00c ]
Gcc-12 correctly warned about this code using a non-NULL pointer as a
truth value:
drivers/gpu/drm/imx/ipuv3-crtc.c: In function ‘ipu_crtc_disable_planes’:
drivers/gpu/drm/imx/ipuv3-crtc.c:72:21: error: the comparison will always evaluate as ‘true’ for the address of ‘plane’ will never be NULL [-Werror=address]
72 | if (&ipu_crtc->plane[1] && plane == &ipu_crtc->plane[1]->base)
| ^
due to the extraneous '&' address-of operator.
Philipp Zabel points out that The mistake had no adverse effect since
the following condition doesn't actually dereference the NULL pointer,
but the intent of the code was obviously to check for it, not to take
the address of the member.

README
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 Restructured Text 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.
