I hit this in my compile testing:
fs/ext4/inode.c: In function ‘ext4_break_layouts’:
fs/ext4/inode.c:3915:13: error: unused variable ‘error’ [-Werror=unused-variable]
3915 | int error;
| ^~~~~
fs/ext4/inode.c:3914:22: error: unused variable ‘page’ [-Werror=unused-variable]
3914 | struct page *page;
| ^~~~
cc1: all warnings being treated as errors
...which gets fixed up later on, but bisect breakage is unwanted.
The bots will probably find this too eventually.
