Hello Adrian,

I filed the bug already. It's
https://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=108483.
The diff is attached. It's published as CC0 in case anyone considers
this trivial change copyrightable. This patch prevents this one specific
warning from being upgraded to "error" even if you configure the kernel
to use "-Werror". It still keeps it active as warning, though.
Kind regards,
Michael Karcher
