I've tried gcc-4.3 now on ARM, and I don't get this warning (just a lot "may be used uninitialized"), but unlike gcc-4.4, my version doesn't actually get into the code path I have changed because __builtin_bswap32 was only introduced with 4.4. I don't have gcc-4.4 and 4.5 here, but the warning does show up with 4.6, 4.7 and 4.8: drivers/soc/sunxi/sunxi_sram.c: In function ‘sunxi_sram_show’: drivers/soc/sunxi/sunxi_sram.c:103:7: warning: format ‘%x’ expects argument of type ‘unsigned int’, but argument 3 has type ‘unsigned int’ [-Wformat=] 4.8 is probably still common enough that we should try to address this. This change addresses the problem for me with ARM gcc-4.8, but adding two more type casts. This also makes the 16/32/64 bit swaps all look the same. I would expect this to also have the same effect on 4.4. Please fold into the previous patch.
