Kbuild: use -Wdeclaration-after-statement
The kernel is moving from using `-std=gnu89` to `-std=gnu11`, permitting the use of additional C11 features such as for-loop initial declarations. One contentious aspect of C99 is that it permits mixed declarations and code, and for now at least, it seems preferable to enforce that declarations must come first. These warnings were already enabled in the kernel itself, but not for KBUILD_USERCFLAGS or the compat VDSO on arch/arm64, which uses a separate set of CFLAGS. This patch fixes an existing violation in modpost.c, which is not reported because of the missing flag in KBUILD_USERCFLAGS: | scripts/mod/modpost.c: In function ‘match’: | scripts/mod/modpost.c:837:3: warning: ISO C90 forbids mixed declarations and code [-Wdeclaration-after-statement] | 837 | const char *endp = p + strlen(p) - 1; | | ^~~~~ Signed-off-by: Mark Rutland <mark.rutland@arm.com> [arnd: don't add a duplicate flag to the default set, update changelog] Signed-off-by: Arnd Bergmann <arnd@arndb.de> Reviewed-by: Nathan Chancellor <nathan@kernel.org> Reviewed-by: Nick Desaulniers <ndesaulniers@google.com> Tested-by: Sedat Dilek <sedat.dilek@gmail.com> # LLVM/Clang v13.0.0 (x86-64) Signed-off-by: Masahiro Yamada <masahiroy@kernel.org>
