Strangely, but my i386 build goes smooth.
Which version of gcc you use and could you please give me your
.config, so I can test the same?
Now I see this warning which seems to be a false positive.
Boris, could you please apply the following:

or please let me know if you want me to resend with this fix?

Missed this message. Yes, this obviously fixes the problem. And it is
due to the code fragment that I mentioned in the earlier response.

Which patch is this for? I can add this when committing.
Thank you, this is for "[PATCH v5 7/8] xen/gntdev: Implement dma-buf export functionality"
