Perhaps, it would be good idea to fight the original problem. I mean, fix warnings where possible. Example: there are lots of "unused parameter" ones. Where it is false warning, add __maybe_unused attribute. Like this: diff --git a/include/linux/kernel.h b/include/linux/kernel.h index c566927..83e43b7 100644 --- a/include/linux/kernel.h +++ b/include/linux/kernel.h @@ -163,8 +163,9 @@ extern int _cond_resched(void); # define might_sleep() \ do { __might_sleep(__FILE__, __LINE__, 0); might_resched(); } while (0) #else - static inline void __might_sleep(const char *file, int line, - int preempt_offset) { } + static inline void __might_sleep(const char *file __maybe_unused, + int line __maybe_unused, + int preempt_offset __maybe_unused) { } # define might_sleep() do { might_resched(); } while (0) #endif
