drm/i915 adds some extra cflags, namely -Wall, which causes
instances of -Wformat-security to appear when building with clang, even
though this warning is turned off kernel-wide in the main Makefile:
> drivers/gpu/drm/i915/gt/intel_gt.c:983:2: error: format string is not a string literal (potentially insecure) [-Werror,-Wformat-security]
> GEM_TRACE("ERROR\n");
> ^~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
> ./drivers/gpu/drm/i915/i915_gem.h:76:24: note: expanded from macro 'GEM_TRACE'
> #define GEM_TRACE(...) trace_printk(__VA_ARGS__)
> ^~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
> ./include/linux/kernel.h:369:3: note: expanded from macro 'trace_printk'
> do_trace_printk(fmt, ##__VA_ARGS__); \
> ^~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
> ./include/linux/kernel.h:383:30: note: expanded from macro 'do_trace_printk'
> __trace_bprintk(_THIS_IP_, trace_printk_fmt, ##args); \
> ^~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
>drivers/gpu/drm/i915/gt/intel_gt.c:983:2: note: treat the string as an argument to avoid this
This does not happen with GCC because it does not enable
-Wformat-security with -Wall. Disable -Wformat-security within the i915
Makefile so that these warnings do not show up with clang.
