I guess those lines are

memcpy(old_stat, chip->irq_stat, NBANK(chip));

and

memcpy(chip->irq_stat, cur_stat, NBANK(chip));

?

#define NBANK(chip) DIV_ROUND_UP(chip->gpio_chip.ngpio, BANK_SZ)

ngpio is u16, BANK_SZ is 8, so smatch assumes someone may set
ngpio to 65535. Which someone could do through driver_data.
But none of the predefined entries in pca953x_dt_ids[] does.

Gr{oetje,eeting}s,
