Subject: [PATCH] Revert "drm/i915: Force clean compilation with -Werror"

This reverts commit 118182e9d7d5afa0c7c10f568afb46ab78b462e9.

It's causing too much trouble when compile-testing for non-i915 folks.

What's the argument against using COMPILE_TEST as a proxy for detecting
all(yes|mod)config as in Damien's patch?

I also thought about random users bisecting who'll then also might trip
over this. Figure that overall the benefit isn't good enough given the
trouble this seems to have caused immediately. 0-day is pretty fast at
screaming around about new compiler warnings anyway, for the cases where I
miss them.

You haven't fixed the issue of breaking a bisect using allyesconfig
unless you modify history. Either way they need to do a couple of skips.
