[PATCH for-8.0 v2 1/3] async: Suppress GCC13 false positive in aio_bh_po

Subject: [PATCH for-8.0 v2 1/3] async: Suppress GCC13 false positive in aio_bh_poll()
Date: Tue, 21 Mar 2023 17:16:07 +0100

From: Cédric Le Goater <clg@redhat.com>

GCC13 reports an error :

../util/async.c: In function ‘aio_bh_poll’:
include/qemu/queue.h:303:22: error: storing the address of local variable 
‘slice’ in ‘*ctx.bh_slice_list.sqh_last’ [-Werror=dangling-pointer=]
  303 |     (head)->sqh_last = &(elm)->field.sqe_next;                          
\
      |     ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~^~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
../util/async.c:169:5: note: in expansion of macro ‘QSIMPLEQ_INSERT_TAIL’
  169 |     QSIMPLEQ_INSERT_TAIL(&ctx->bh_slice_list, &slice, next);
      |     ^~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
../util/async.c:161:17: note: ‘slice’ declared here
  161 |     BHListSlice slice;
      |                 ^~~~~
../util/async.c:161:17: note: ‘ctx’ declared here

But the local variable 'slice' is removed from the global context list
in following loop of the same routine. Add a pragma to silent GCC.
