For the record, this breaks allmodconfig with clang (I haven't seen a
formal report on it anywhere and this missed -next coverage because
Stephen is on vacation):

I know you don't take patches during the merge window, so I guess we'll
just have to have x86_64 allmodconfig be broken with clang for -rc1? :/
I can send fix-up patches that break the build before -rc1 if you have
it. Also you can send it and Linus can pick it up directly if it breaks
his workflow.

Odd that this was never reported, 0-day didn't even say anything?

thanks,

Hi Greg,
  On a similar note. There was another issue reported in which randconfig for i386 build breaks as usb_hub_find_child API is not present as usbcore isn't compiled in that config (CONFIG_USB isn't set).
Patch to fix has been pushed recently and is in review:
https://lore.kernel.org/linux-usb/1659337215-20421-1-git-send-email-quic_kriskura@xxxxxxxxxxx/

Would it be possible to pick it up in rc1 to make sure nothing breaks further because of it.
I can respin patch if something is off in it.

Regards,
Krishna,
