cat -n $code_file | tail -n +$(($lineno - (($context + 1) / 2))) | head -n $(($context + 1))

That's handy, I'll use it to show the source file context for the
first error/warning :-)

Example:

drivers/leds/led-triggers.c: In function ‘led_trigger_event’:
drivers/leds/led-triggers.c:227:3: error: implicit declaration of function ‘led_set_brightness’ [-Werror=implicit-function-declaration]

drivers/leds/led-triggers.c:227:
224 struct led_classdev *led_cdev;
225
226 led_cdev = list_entry(entry, struct led_classdev, trig_list);
> 227 led_set_brightness(led_cdev, brightness);
228 }
229 read_unlock(&trigger->leddev_list_lock);
230 }

Thanks!
