Didn't your compiler trigger that:

drivers/edac/mce_amd_inj.c: In function ‘flags_write’:
drivers/edac/mce_amd_inj.c:146:2: warning: ignoring return value of ‘strstrip’, 
declared with attribute warn_unused_result [-Wunused-result]
   strstrip(buf);
   ^

?


Oddly, No. The only thing I got was:
arch/x86/kernel/cpu/microcode/intel_early.c: In function âget_matching_model_microcode.isra.2.constprop.7â: arch/x86/kernel/cpu/microcode/intel_early.c:348:1: warning: the frame size of 1064 bytes is larger than 1024 bytes [-Wframe-larger-than=]
 }
 ^




Because it is a valid warning. You need to take the return value. I
fixed it up like this:

Thanks for fixing it.
