Thanks! I have made code changes for the above warning. Actually I am
still unable to reproduce the compilation warning. But I believe the
following code fix will fix the compilation warning:

In file lib/test_bitmap.c

@@ -692,7 +692,7 @@ struct clump_test_data_params {
unsigned long const *exp;
};

-struct clump_test_data_params clump_test_data[] =
+static struct clump_test_data_params clump_test_data[] __initdata =
{ {{0}, 2, 0, 64, 8, clump_exp1},
{{0}, 8, 2, 240, 24, clump_exp2},
{{0}, 8, 10, 240, 30, clump_exp3},


Let me know if I should submit a new patchset (v8) for
'for_each_set_clump' including above code fix.

Just to share how I attempted to reproduce the warning (but unsuccessful):

Step 1: Use the config file in attachment. Download, extract, rename
file to .config at the root of the tree.
Step 2: '$ make lib/'
No warning reproduced after above step 2.
Step 3: '$ make W=1 C=1 ARCH=x86_64 CF='-fdiagnostic-prefix
-D__CHECK_ENDIAN__' lib/'
After step 3 I got error in build:
scripts/kconfig/conf --syncconfig Kconfig
CHECK scripts/mod/empty.c
No such file: asan-globals=1
scripts/Makefile.build:266: recipe for target 'scripts/mod/empty.o' failed
make[1]: *** [scripts/mod/empty.o] Error 1
Makefile:1147: recipe for target 'prepare0' failed
make: *** [prepare0] Error 2

The command in above step 3 was mentioned in the bot mail.

Syed Nayyar Waris
