I've sent this, which should fix it:
https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/20221017043107.never.457-kees@kernel.org/

However, the -1 size tells me something has gone slightly wrong with the
runtime warning, as it _should_ be ignoring destinations with "unknown"
size -- in this case, struct sockaddr has a trailing array, which is
treated (currently) as a fake flexible array, so __builtin_object_size()
is reporting the "-1". But with the coming -fstrict-flex-arrays, this
will need fixing anyway. I will re-check the runtime warning logic...
