About the title, Ali reproduced the issue with other versions of gcc.
This patch touches base/ code, is Intel ok with this?
Else, we could consider disabling strict aliasing for the base driver, like
$ git grep alias '**/base/meson.build'
drivers/net/fm10k/base/meson.build: '-Wno-strict-aliasing',
'-Wno-format-extra-args',
drivers/net/i40e/base/meson.build: '-Wno-strict-aliasing',
'-Wno-unused-but-set-variable',
drivers/net/qede/base/meson.build: '-Wno-strict-aliasing',

No Cc: stable, this is a regression in main.
