My build doesn't produce any warnings. A defconfig + enabling kvm.ko as module:
...
AR built-in.a
AR vmlinux.a
LD vmlinux.o
OBJCOPY modules.builtin.modinfo
GEN modules.builtin
MODPOST Module.symvers
CC .vmlinux.export.o
CC [M] arch/x86/kvm/kvm.mod.o
CC [M] fs/efivarfs/efivarfs.mod.o
...
Does the attached patch help? Or is there anything else I should do to
trigger the above problem?
Thanks,
Uros.
