Hi all,

After merging the driver-core tree, today's linux-next build (x86_64
allmodconfig) failed like this:

In file included from include/linux/dmi.h:5,
from drivers/firmware/efi/embedded-firmware.c:8:
drivers/firmware/efi/embedded-firmware.c:25:38: error: static declaration of 'efi_embedded_fw_list' follows non-static declaration
25 | EFI_EMBEDDED_FW_VISIBILITY LIST_HEAD(efi_embedded_fw_list);
| ^~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
include/linux/list.h:24:19: note: in definition of macro 'LIST_HEAD'
24 | struct list_head name = LIST_HEAD_INIT(name)
| ^~~~
In file included from drivers/firmware/efi/embedded-firmware.c:17:
drivers/firmware/efi/embedded-firmware.h:16:25: note: previous declaration of 'efi_embedded_fw_list' was here
16 | extern struct list_head efi_embedded_fw_list;
| ^~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
drivers/firmware/efi/embedded-firmware.c:26:33: error: static declaration of 'efi_embedded_fw_checked' follows non-static declaration
26 | EFI_EMBEDDED_FW_VISIBILITY bool efi_embedded_fw_checked;
| ^~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
In file included from drivers/firmware/efi/embedded-firmware.c:17:
drivers/firmware/efi/embedded-firmware.h:17:13: note: previous declaration of 'efi_embedded_fw_checked' was here
17 | extern bool efi_embedded_fw_checked;
| ^~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Caused by commit

2d38dbf89a06 ("test_firmware: Test platform fw loading on non-EFI systems")

CONFIG_TEST_FIRMWARE=m for this build.

I have used the driver-core tree from next-20200724 for today.
