I already sent a patch explaining it was a false-positive and silencing
the warning:

We already have a buildbot running and automated boot testing.  The
mailinglist is here:

  http://lists.linaro.org/mailman/listinfo/kernel-build-reports

Links to the reports are in the emails.  Please review and see if there
is anything we're missing.  Please keep in mind this is a volunteer task
for those currently running it.  Contributions would be much more
appreciated than good ideas ;-)

thx,

Jason.
