Either approach is fine by me. The smaller might be easier to get
accepted into stable. The larger approach will probably become more
useful in the future (having the diag infra work properly with clang).
I think the ball is kind of in Jens' court to decide.  Would doing
both be appropriate, Jens? Have the smaller patch tagged for stable
disabling it for the whole file, then another commit on top not tagged
for stable that adds the diag infra, and a third on top replacing the
file level warning disablement with local diags to isolate this down
to one case?  It's a fair but small amount of churn IMO; but if Jens
is not opposed it seems fine?
