For some reason GCC 12 decided to complain about the common
pattern of queuing an object onto a list on the stack in ath6k:

    inlined from ‘ath6kl_htc_mbox_tx’ at drivers/net/wireless/ath/ath6kl/htc_mbox.c:1142:3:
include/linux/list.h:74:19: warning: storing the address of local variable ‘queue’ in ‘*&packet_15(D)->list.prev’ [-Wdangling-pointer=]
   74 |         new->prev = prev;
      |         ~~~~~~~~~~^~~~~~

Move the warning to W=1, hopefully it goes away with a compiler
update.
