Hi Mashiro

That actual works well for my use case. drivers/net/ethernet is W=1
clean. So is drivers/net/phy, drivers/net/mdio. Developers generally
clean up a subsystem by adding W=1 to the command line because that is
the simple tool they have.

And my aim here is to keep those subsystem W=1 clean. I don't care
about individual warnings within W=1, because those subsystems are
passed that stage already.
