fsl_diu_monitor_port' declared inside parameter list [-Werror]:  =>
70:9, 84:9, 88:36
  + arch/powerpc/platforms/512x/mpc512x_shared.c: error: 'return' with
a value, in function returning void [-Werror]:  => 189:2
  + arch/powerpc/platforms/512x/mpc512x_shared.c: error: function
declaration isn't a prototype [-Werror=strict-prototypes]:  => 69:5,
88:6, 83:6, 187:1
  + arch/powerpc/platforms/512x/mpc512x_shared.c: error: its scope is
only this definition or declaration, which is probably not what you
want [-Werror]:  => 70:9
  + drivers/virt/fsl_hypervisor.c: error: 'MSR_GS' undeclared (first
use in this function):  => 799:80

powerpc randconfig

  + arch/x86/include/asm/uaccess_32.h: error: call to
'copy_from_user_overflow' declared with attribute error:
copy_from_user() buffer size is not provably correct:  => 211:26

error in i386-randconfig, warning in i386-defconfig

In personal conversations with technical people, I call myself a hacker. But
when I'm talking to journalists I just say "programmer" or something like that.
