Commit c8b5f2c96d1bf6c ("tools: Introduce str_error_r()") added
an str_error_r() wrapper which makes gcc8 unhappy due to
restrict-qualified parameter aliasing violation:
../lib/str_error_r.c: In function ‘str_error_r’:
../lib/str_error_r.c:25:3: error: passing argument 1 to restrict-qualified parameter aliases with argument 5 [-Werror=restrict]
snprintf(buf, buflen, "INTERNAL ERROR: strerror_r(%d, %p, %zd)=%d", errnum, buf, buflen, err);
^~~~~~~~
cc1: all warnings being treated as errors
Workaround that aliasing error by creating an additional stack
variable which holds the buf pointer value we passed to strerror_r().

Josh posted another way to fix it:

your patch keeps the same output, I dont mind either way ;-)

Oh, thanks for the pointers.

Thanks. No strong opinion, either way is OK :) Can't tell for sure if
snprintf(... "%p", buf) is significantly better than snprintf(... "[buf]"),
but Arnaldo wanted to have the first version.

I applied Josh's patch, just printing '[buf]', that is good enough, I
think.

Sure. Do you need the whole "strerror_r(%d, %p, %zd)" in this case?
Seems that printing out just `errnum' should be good enough.
