Thanks!

Oh, hrmpf. This isn't a sane use of flex arrays:


struct __packed pucan_rx_msg {
	...
	__le32	can_id;
	u8	d[];
};

struct pciefd_rx_dma {
        __le32 irq_status;
        __le32 sys_time_low;
        __le32 sys_time_high;
        struct pucan_rx_msg msg[];
} __packed __aligned(4);

I think that needs to be handled separately. How are you building to get
that warning, by the way? I haven't seen that in my builds...
