I prefer to have them there, while the issue remains at .37/-next builds.

It is a pain to see all those warnings polluting my console, every time 
I recompile things, and I can't simply do a grep to discard MEDIA 
warnings/errors (as someone proposed), as this may prevent me to get real
errors at media builds.

The better is to give more time to Marek/Sam to review your patch
series and ack or, if they don't agree, to send an alternative patchset
to fix the issues or to revert the changeset that started to produce 
those troubles.

Cheers,
Mauro
