It's not quite that simple.

   In file included from /usr/lib/gcc/x86_64-linux-gnu/5/plugin/include/tm.h:27,
                    from /usr/lib/gcc/x86_64-linux-gnu/5/plugin/include/gcc-plugin.h:31,

       fprintf ((FILE), "%s"HOST_WIDE_INT_PRINT_UNSIGNED"\n",\

The problem isn't in a kernel source file...  To quote an earlier message of mine:
