I ran that diff through my set of clang builds on v5.17-rc5-21-g23d04328444a and only found one issue: https://github.com/ClangBuiltLinux/linux/issues/1603 I think that should be fixed on the clang side. Once it is, I think we could just disable that warning in those translation units for older versions of clang to keep the status quo. Cheers, Nathan
