A better bet would just be to initialise buf at declaration time, so
"__le32 buf[3] = { 0 };"

The reason this warning is firing is that C may not assume that
p->policyvers doesn't change between the next_entry() call and the
role->bounds assignment.  Pulling p->policyvers into a local variable
might also be sufficient.
