3.19.8-ckt14 -stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know. ---8<------------------------------------------------------------ From: Lee Jones <lee.jones@xxxxxxxxxx> commit 7599ea8b4e25fd8dea26cb64f100cf265d1e6bf3 upstream. Ideally, a kernel compile with W=1 enabled should complete cleanly; however, when we run one currently we are presented with ~25k warnings. 'sign-compare' accounts for ~22k of those ~25k. In this patch we're demoting 'sign-compare' warnings to W=2, with a view to fixing the remaining 3k W=1 warnings required for a clean build. Arnd adds: "As per our discussion, I'd add that this was inadvertedly introduced by Behan when he moved the clang specific warnings into an ifdef block and did not notice that -Wsign-compare was interpreted by both gcc and clang. Earlier, it was introduced in just the same way by Jan-Simon as part of 3d3d6b847420 ("kbuild: LLVMLinux: Adapt warnings for compilation with clang")."
