I wasn't planning on doing any conversions for 6.18, but if it makes
things easier for people to start doing this, I could certainly take
just the "add new compiler flags" at any time.

Alternatively, maybe Rasmus/Nathan could just expose that commit
778740ee2d00 ("Kbuild: enable -fms-extensions") as a shared stable
branch.

That commit seems to be directly on top of 6.18-rc2, so people who
want it could just pull that commit instead.
