Subject[PATCH 2/3] treewide: use -Wdeclaration-after-statement
Date
From: Mark Rutland <mark.rutland@arm.com>

In a subsequent patch we'll move the kernel from using `-std=gnu89` to
`-std=gnu11`, permitting the use of additional C11 features such as
for-loop initial declarations.

One contentious aspect of C99 is that it permits mixed declarations and
code, and for now at least, it seems preferable to enforce that
declarations must come first.

These warnings were already disabled in the kernel itself, but not
for KBUILD_USERCFLAGS or the compat VDSO on arch/arm64, which uses
a separate set of CFLAGS.

This patch fixes an existing violation in modpost.c, which is not
reported because of the missing flag in KBUILD_USERCFLAGS:

| scripts/mod/modpost.c: In function ‘match’:
| scripts/mod/modpost.c:837:3: warning: ISO C90 forbids mixed declarations and code [-Wdeclaration-after-statement]
| 837 | const char *endp = p + strlen(p) - 1;
| | ^~~~~
