Hi,

gcc trunk has failed to build PowerPC64 kernels for a month or so. The issue
is in oprofile, which is common code but ends up being sucked into
arch/powerpc and therefore subject to the -Werror applied to arch/powerpc:
=20
linux/arch/powerpc/oprofile/../../../drivers/oprofile/oprofile_stats.c: In =
function =E2=80=98oprofile_create_stats_files=E2=80=99:

5: error: =E2=80=98%d=E2=80=99 directive output may be truncated writing be=
tween 1 and 11 bytes into a region of size 7 [-Werror=3Dformat-truncation=

   snprintf(buf, 10, "cpu%d", i);
                         ^~
