gcc assumes that 'sizeof(*args) + size' can overflow, which would result
in the problem.

The problem is not new, only it is now no longer a warning but an error since W=1
has been enabled for the drm subsystem and since Werror is enabled for test builds.

Rearrange arithmetic and add extra size checks to avoid the overflow.

checkpatch complains about the line length in the description and the (pre-existing)
assignlemts in if conditions, but I did not want to split lines in the description
or rearrange the code further.

I don't know why I only see the problem with parisc builds (at least so far).

Hi,

Would it be cleaner or better to use size_add(sizeof(*args), size)?

return -ENOMEM;
} else {
args = (void *)stack;

Same.
