Ug. Let me guess, is this compiled with -Werror?

Because a warning about a macro that may or may not create printf
formatting, where gcc thinks it needs a gcc printf attribute and warns
about it, is not something to fail the build on.

For any build that fails on warnings, that specific warning needs to be
silenced.

I mean, "-Werror=suggest-attribute=format", really?

yes, it's compiled with -Werror if using 'W=1' option:

 >>>>>> include/trace/trace_events.h:261:16: error: function 
'trace_event_get_offsets_iwlwifi_dbg' might be a candidate for 
'gnu_printf' format attribute [-Werror=suggest-attribute=format]

Is there a way we can silent this particular error when W=1?

Ooh! Doing a search of this I found:

include/trace/events/qla.h:#pragma GCC diagnostic ignored "-Wsuggest-attribute=format"

Perhaps I should just make that part of trace_events.h ?
