Hi,
During the weekend we updated wireless-next tree from v6.5 to v6.6-rc4+.
It looks like a new warning was enabled for v6.6 as I see with GCC 13.2
and W=1 several warnings (list below). In v6.5 wireless code was still
W=1 warning free with GCC.
For wireless we get lots of questionable cleanup patches. But actually
these kind of warnings are what we would prefer to be fixed instead of
the random churn we always see. Hence I'm sending this Request For Help
(RFH) in case the cleanup people would fix these. Is there a mailing
list I should send this to?
The sooner these are fixed the better, it makes it difficult for us to
see any new warnings from this noise.

Can you pin-point the exact commit that introduces the warnings?

There is only one commit touching above files in current cycle, that is b2fd72aafb1311 ("wifi: ath9k: Remove unnecessary ternary operators").
That's what I know.

Can't say I am a big fan of this new warning, but I will look at the
brcmfmac related warnings.
Btw. is it possible to opt out per driver.

I already sent a patch, please take a look:

Usually that's not preferred.
