Clang warns:
In file included from drivers/net/ethernet/intel/iavf/iavf_main.c:4:
In file included from drivers/net/ethernet/intel/iavf/iavf.h:37:
In file included from drivers/net/ethernet/intel/iavf/iavf_type.h:8:
drivers/net/ethernet/intel/iavf/iavf_osdep.h:49:18: warning: 'format' attribute argument not supported: gnu_printf [-Wignored-attributes]
__attribute__ ((format(gnu_printf, 3, 4)));
^
1 warning generated.
We can convert from gnu_printf to printf without any side effects for
two reasons:
1. All iavf_debug instances use standard printf formats, as pointed out
by Miguel Ojeda at the below link, meaning gnu_printf is not strictly
required.
2. However, GCC has aliased printf to gnu_printf on Linux since at least
2010 based on git history.
From gcc/c-family/c-format.c:
/* Attributes such as "printf" are equivalent to those such as
"gnu_printf" unless this is overridden by a target. */
static const target_ovr_attr gnu_target_overrides_format_attributes[] =
{
{ "gnu_printf", "printf" },
{ "gnu_scanf", "scanf" },
{ "gnu_strftime", "strftime" },
{ "gnu_strfmon", "strfmon" },
{ NULL, NULL }
};
The mentioned override only happens on Windows (mingw32). Changing from
gnu_printf to printf is a no-op for GCC and stops Clang from warning.

Thanks for this fix!
FWIW, using godbolt to see which version something was added in is
better than giving a year of the commit. I don't think it matters for
this case, as the kernel already makes use of `printf` as you do in
this change, but food for thought for next time.

And you make use of the __attribute__ wrapper from
include/linux/compiler_attributes.h, cool.

Yes that is a good point, I need to be taking advantage of that site
