Build regressions/improvements in v5.17-rc4

From: Geert Uytterhoeven
Date: Mon Feb 14 2022 - 04:43:04 EST


Below is the list of build error/warning regressions/improvements in
v5.17-rc4[1] compared to v5.16[2].

Summarized:
- build errors: +14/-2
- build warnings: +23/-25

JFYI, when comparing v5.17-rc4[1] to v5.17-rc3[3], the summaries are:
- build errors: +1/-0
- build warnings: +0/-0

Note that there may be false regressions, as some logs are incomplete.
Still, they're build errors/warnings.

Happy fixing! ;-)

Thanks to the linux-next team for providing the build service.
