-Wmisleading-indentation is already part of -Wall, so this is globally
enabled already.

-Wunused is enabled under W=1, and it's pretty noisy still. If you can
get builds clean in drm, that'll be a good step towards getting it
enabled globally. (A middle ground with less to clean up might be
-Wunused-but-set-variable)

I agree about -Werror: just stick with CONFIG_WERROR instead.
