It's just the newer compiler is more fussy than the old one so when you
bisect you're not getting fixes for newer compilers.   You can pass
flags to the configure to use extra clfgas to turn this particular
warning off.

Title:
  Windows 7 guest won't boot on qemu 2.10 (works on 2.9)

Status in QEMU:
  New

Bug description:
  Qemu version: 2.10 stable.
  Guest: Windows 7 SP1 x64, virtio drivers are already installed in the guest.
  Command line:
  qemu-system-x86_64 \
      -nodefaults \
      -nodefconfig \
      -machine type=q35,accel=kvm \
      -enable-kvm \
      -cpu host \
      -m 2048 \
      -vga virtio \
      -boot menu=on \
      -smbios file=/path/dmidecode_BIOS.bin \
      -acpitable file=/path/acpi_slic.bin \
      -bios /path/OVMF_CODE.fd \
      -net none \
      -drive if=virtio,media=disk,file=/media/win7.qcow2 \
      -device pcie-root-port \
      -device ich9-usb-ehci1 \
      -device ich9-usb-uhci1 \
      -device ich9-usb-uhci2 \
      -device ich9-usb-uhci3

  Windows hangs at boot with waving flag screen (flag doesn't freeze,
  keeps waving indefinitely). Same command line boots fine with Qemu
  2.9. I tried changing machine type to pc-q35-2.9 - same result.
