These are fixed in upstream commit 7d6a4f123e00c9, which
went into QEMU a year ago (should be in QEMU 6.1, I think).
In general this kind of situation where a newer compiler
is better at identifying and warning about problems can
happen where you're building an older QEMU with a newer
compiler that hadn't been released at the time that the
QEMU you're building was released. There are three basic
ways to resolve it:
(1) use a newer QEMU
(2) use an older compiler
(3) if the problem is only a warning, configure QEMU with
--disable-werror so it isn't fatal. (Looks like for
this specific case that wouldn't help, though.)
