Some ATA drivers use the SCSI host template, a series of interwoven
macros, to aid with initialisation.  Some of these macros conflict,
resulting in the over-writing of previously set values.
Please just disable this warning globally.  This is a sensible
patter and we should not sprinkle per-file options for something
that fundamental.
Will do.  Just as soon as I've figured out how. :)
I have a local patch series doing it like this
Can I leave this in your capable hands then?

I'll drop all my fixes for this if it can be replaced with just one.

I think this also requires a preparation patch to extend __diag_ignore to
additional compiler versions, not sure if that was already merged.
