Subject[RFC 1/2] x86: mark target address as output in 'insb' asm
Date
The -Wmaybe-uninitialized warning triggers for one driver using the output
of the 'insb' I/O helper on x86:

drivers/net/wireless/wl3501_cs.c: In function ‘wl3501_mgmt_scan_confirm’:
drivers/net/wireless/wl3501_cs.c:665:9: error: ‘sig.status’ is used uninitialized in this function [-Werror=uninitialized]
drivers/net/wireless/wl3501_cs.c:668:12: error: ‘sig.cap_info’ may be used uninitialized in this function [-Werror=maybe-uninitialized]

Apparently the assember constraints are slightly off here, as marking the
'addr' argument as a memory output seems appropriate here and gets rid
of the warning. For consistency I'm also adding it as input for outsb().

Unfortunately, this fix triggers another problem when CONFIG_KASAN is
set, again only in this one driver:

drivers/net/wireless/wl3501_cs.c: In function 'wl3501_rx_interrupt':
drivers/net/wireless/wl3501_cs.c:1103:1: error: the frame size of 2232 bytes is larger than 1536 bytes [-Werror=frame-larger-than=]

I'm not an x86 person and gcc inline assembly mystifies me all the time,
so please review this carefully and suggest a better way if this is not
how it should be done.
