Sorry about that, seems we can't avoid running into compiler problems with
this lot. The good news is that there's a series to fix this here:

https://lore.kernel.org/r/20200521142047.169334-1-elver@xxxxxxxxxx

so hopefully this be fixed in -tip soon (but I agree that reverting the
thing in -next in the meantime makes sense).
