[v2] examples: compilation fix for GCC-12
Checks
Commit Message
GCC-12 warns when a pointer of type union points to an array of same
defined size, as union internally gets paded with pad bytes.
../examples/common/neon/port_group.h:42:21: error: array subscript
'union <anonymous>[0]' is partly outside array bounds of
'uint16_t[5]' {aka 'short unsigned int[5]'}
[-Werror=array-bounds]
42 | pnum->u64 = gptbl[v].pnum;

size [0, 10]

checkpatch complains about coding style error. It looks like a false positive ?
Please suggest.
Thanks,

Yes we can ignore this checkpatch warning.
