Hmm, this seems to trigger warning on NIPAs build_allmodconfig_warn test:
../include/uapi/linux/if_pppox.h:153:29: warning: array of flexible structures
Would you mind a new version? Its the last patch, so I leave it up to
you if you want to resend the whole series or just 4/4.
Sorry, I did not have time to run the entire test pipeline with the
pending patches until today.
