[PATCH 1/4] kbuild: turn on -Wextra by default
From: Arnd Bergmann
Date: Thu Apr 04 2024 - 11:20:37 EST
From: Arnd Bergmann <arnd@xxxxxxxx>
The -Wextra option controls a number of different warnings that differ
slightly by compiler version. Some are useful in general, others are
better left at W=1 or higher. Based on earlier work, the ones that
should be disabled by default are left for the higher warning levels
already, and a lot of the useful ones have no remaining output when
enabled.
Move the -Wextra option up into the set of default-enabled warnings
and just rely on the individual ones getting disabled as needed.
The -Wunused warning was always grouped with this, so turn it on
by default as well, except for the -Wunused-parameter warning that
really has no value at all for the kernel since many interfaces
have intentionally unused arguments.
