Hi all,

The above warning still exists when build the latest loongarch-next.

Do you know which tree this patch will go through?

Could you please pick it up via your tree in this merge window?

A similar change 3ef6ca4f354c ("checksyscalls: Unconditionally ignore
fstat{,at}64") was merged through RISC-V tree, so it should be OK to
merge this from loongarch-next.

Not sure if we need to get an Ack from someone first though.


Since this is a kernel build warning, maybe it is proper through
linux-kbuild.git.
