I've added your patch to my randconfig test setup and will let you
know if I see anything noticeable. I'm currently testing clang-arm32,
clang-arm64 and gcc-x86.

This is the only additional bug that has come up so far:

`.exit.text' referenced in section `.alt.smp.init' of
drivers/char/ipmi/ipmi_msghandler.o: defined in discarded section
`exit.text' of drivers/char/ipmi/ipmi_msghandler.o

Wouldn't it be useful to activate -Winline gcc warning to ease finding
out problematic usage of inline keyword ?


Yes, it is useful to find out
which function is causing the error.
Thanks for the tip.


I did a mass build on kisskb. Almost ok, see results at http://kisskb.ellerman.id.au/kisskb/head/203d912edf8dde291977c71aa64024065e197f79/
