Hi,

_FORTIFY_SOURCE=3 fail to compile with gcc 12/glibc 2.35.

Used:
  (GCC) 12.0.1 20220504 (prerelease)
  glibc ec5b79aac768 (release/2.35/master)

Lower level (_FORTIFY_SOURCE=2) compiled fine.

Tricks similar to suggested in https://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=91397
not help: warning disappear only when I set wrong condition

  if (w >= sizeof(u))
    __builtin_unreachable();

(should be w > sizeof(u)).
