When cgroups are enabled, but every single subsystem is turned off,
CGROUP_SUBSYS_COUNT is zero, and the cgrp->subsys[] array has no
members.

gcc-11 points out that this leads to an invalid access in any function
that might access this array:

kernel/cgroup/cgroup.c: In function 'cgroup_addrm_files':
kernel/cgroup/cgroup.c:460:58: warning: array subscript '<unknown>' is outside the bounds of an interior zero-length array 'struct cgroup_subsys_state *[0]' [-Wzero-length-bounds]

I'm not sure what is expected to happen for such a configuration,
presumably these functions are never calls in that case. Adding a
sanity check in each function we get the warning for manages to shut
up the warnings and do nothing instead.

I'm grouping this together with the -Wstringop-overread warnings,
since the underlying logic in gcc seems to be the same.

Yes, the functions you patched would only be called from subsystems or
there should be no way to obtain a struct cgroup_subsys reference
anyway (hence it's ok to always branch as if ss==NULL).

I'd prefer a variant that wouldn't compile the affected codepaths when
there are no subsystems registered, however, I couldn't come up with a
way how to do it without some preprocessor ugliness.

Even without any controllers, there can still be named hierarchies (v1)
or the default hierarchy (v2) (for instance) for process tracking
purposes. So only parts of kernel/cgroup/cgroup.c could be ifdef'd.

Beware that CGROUP_SUBSYS_COUNT is not known at preprocessing stage (you
could have a macro alternative though).

Such a guarantee would be nicer, I agree. I tried a bit but anandoned it
when I saw macros proliferate (which I found less readable than your
current variant). But YMMV.
