Hi all,
After merging the kspp-gustavo tree, today's linux-next build (powerpc
pseries_le_defconfig) failed like this:

I have used the kspp-gustavo tree from next-20231120 for today.
Thanks a lot for the report, again!
We are pretty close to enabling this compiler option, and it seems you
are catching issues that neither 0-day folks nor I have caught before.
I wonder if you could help me catch the rest of these issues by disabling
WERROR (so we can get all the warnings) and letting your builds run with the
following patch on top:
