The question shouldn't be focused on permissions, I think it should more be focused on Privacy Policy and if these permissions have been taken into consideration within your Privacy Policy.

Quoting Android Runtime Permissions
The Dangerous permissions are the permissions which give application access to the user’s private data or affect the system/other apps. If you list a dangerous permission in manifest then the user has to explicitly give permission to your application.
If you take a look at that list you can see that com.google.android.providers.gsf.permission.READ_GSERVICES is a dangerous permission, that causes the violation.
EDIT: If you have that permission because you use Google Maps, you can safely remove it as it is not required anymore.
