I can offer another bit of information for this software development discussion.

The affected source file can be compiled for the processor architecture âx86_64â
by a tool like âGCC 6.4.1+r251631-1.3â from the software distribution
âopenSUSE Tumbleweedâ with the following command example.

my_cc=/usr/bin/gcc-6 \
&& my_module=drivers/net/usb/sr9800.ko \
&& git checkout next-20171009 \
&& make -j4 CC="${my_cc}" HOSTCC="${my_cc}" allmodconfig "${my_module}" \
&& size "${my_module}" \
&& git checkout ':/^sr9800: Use common error handling code in sr9800_phy_powerup' \
&& make -j4 CC="${my_cc}" HOSTCC="${my_cc}" allmodconfig "${my_module}" \
&& size "${my_module}"


Do you find the following details useful for further clarification?
