Wrong goal. The goal of a patch should be to improve the code.
To remove false-positive warnings from compilation can only be a
secondary goal.
(See my other post.)
BTW, which compiler do you use? I quickly enabled ubifs here, first
without and then with its various sub-uptions, but didn't get a warning
here with "gcc (Gentoo 4.3.2-r3 p1.6, pie-10.1.5) 4.3.2".
