$ gcc --version
gcc (Debian 11.2.0-16+build1) 11.2.0

I believe this is a new warning for gcc-11 [1], and somewhat unfortunate that
it results in a warning for gcc-9.4. So a patch that would resolve the test
warnings for gcc 11 would introduce a new warning for gcc 9, and vice versa.
What's the preferred solution here?

Thanks,
Yuanchu
