Greetings!!!

I see below build warnings while compiling mainline kernel on IBM Power9 system.

Repo Link: https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux.git/

Head Commit: f6e0150b2003fb2b9265028a618aa1732b3edc8f

Attached is the .config.

Machine: IBM Power9

gcc version 11.5.0

What is the ld version in your system.

Please find the ld version below.

GNU ld version 2.35.2-59.el9


Regards,

Venkat.

Reason for asking is that currently with

commit  579aee9fc594a ("powerpc: suppress some linker warnings in recent linker versions")

ld version greater than >2.39, this warning is being suppressed.
