I build with CONFIG_WERROR=y, which turns all warnings
into errors. It's just a warning without that, and is
currently only enabled when building with 'make W=1',

It's clearly harmless and could be backported, but it
is not needed either since older kernels will keep the
option as part of W=1, not the default.
