That's not true. The config has enabled CONFIG_VIDEO_VISCONTI_VIIF, so
your reproduction steps were not correct (e.g. wrong arch, compiler etc).

Different compilers can have have or not have warnings, but it does not
allow to ignore this warning. You can analyze the code even without
reproducing it, if the reproduction is a problem.
