So your words and Wenyou are contradictory. Wenyou claimed the
warnings do not come from his patchset while you said yes. Anyway will
leave you guys to resolve.

My point is: if the warnings exist in current mainline, this should be
fixed as a unrelated patch. If the warnings come from this series,
this should be fixed in the particular patch that introduces the
warnings!
