The warning is emitted when I invoke following commands in ubuntu
22.04 (ppc64le)
linux$make allmodconfig
linux$make drivers/gpu/drm/radeon/r100.o (a quick alternative to 'make -j$nproc)

But everything is OK when I invoke following commands in ubuntu 22.04 (ppc64le)
linux$make allmodconfig LLVM=1
linux$make drivers/gpu/drm/radeon/r100.o LLVM=1

And I can't reproduce the warning in the x86 environment, so I guess
this phenomenon
is toolchain related ;-)

Thanks again
