I build with CONFIG_WERROR=y, which turns all warnings into errors. It's just a warning without that, and is currently only enabled when building with 'make W=1', though the point of my series is to have it always enabled.

It's clearly harmless and could be backported, but it is not needed either since older kernels will keep the option as part of W=1, not the default.
