I did test compile, and I would have noticed errors but I missed the warnings
(I blame the flu...). I need to improve my testing methods, but I couldn't find
a way to add -Werror to kernel builds. I guess I should just always capture the
warnings and errors to a file, and check that after the build.

How do you test build?
I basically do just an allmodconfig build, but I do it with

    make -j16 > ../make-output

so that any warnings are very obvious (because stdout goes elsewhere).
