During development of a serial console driver with a RISC-V toolchain,

Could you provide me a little more information to reproduce it?
I tried your dev/paulw/serial-v4.19-rc7,
but I could not get that warning.
I used risc64-linux-gcc (GCC 7.3, 8.1) from kernel.org
I observed this issue with gcc 8.2:
riscv64-unknown-linux-gnu-gcc (crosstool-NG 1.23.0.534-710c8) 8.2.0
This toolchain was built with mainline crosstool-NG:
https://github.com/crosstool-ng/crosstool-ng
using the "riscv64-unknown-linux-gnu" sample configuration.
