This patch is the prerequisite for 11/11.
https://lore.kernel.org/patchwork/patch/1064959/


Without the correct patch order,
the kbuild test robot reports the warning.

Nobody has noticed this potential issue before.
Without 11/11, probably we cannot reproduce this warning.


BTW, this series has been for a while in linux-next.
