I'm all fine for clean up patches, but I don't like "new warning" message
reports for things that use to be OK, but now are a warning.

In other words, if a bot updates its warnings, it should do a full pass of
the kernel before it starts on new commits, to flag all existing warnings
as OK (but possibly work for someone to clean up), but should not ever send
as a new warning message to the authors.

So, I'm going to ignore this. If someone wants to send me a clean up patch,
I'll test it and take it, but I do not have the time to clean up new
warnings that use to be OK unless they uncovered a real bug.
