This patch also didn't apply.

I also couldn't reproduce this warning here [1].

[1] gcc (GCC) 4.1.2 20080704 (Red Hat 4.1.2-44)

Ingo,

I've added almost 600 patches on my merge tree, several of them that I've
merged recently from driver maintainers. I've already fixed all warnings I got
here with allmodconfig.

Could you please double check if the patches you've added on your tree are still needed?

Thanks,
Mauro.
