FYI, I can't build the kernel after this patch:

	$ make drivers/pci/probe.o
	  UPD     include/config/kernel.release
	  UPD     include/generated/utsrelease.h
	  CALL    scripts/checksyscalls.sh
	  DESCEND objtool
	  INSTALL libsubcmd_headers
	  CC      drivers/pci/probe.o

Yes, my gcc version 5.3.1 is very old, but according to Documentation/process/changes.rst
it should still be supported, the minimal version is 5.1.
