mips:allmodconfig, nds32:allmodconfig, and probably others:

  CC [M]  drivers/gpu/drm/virtio/virtgpu_object.o
drivers/gpu/drm/virtio/virtgpu_object.c:31:67: error: expected ')' before 'int'
   31 | module_param_named(virglhack, virtio_gpu_virglrenderer_workaround, int, 0400);

Culprit is "drm/virtio: make resource id workaround runtime switchable.".
Upstream commit b0138364da17617d ("drm/virtio: module_param_named() requires linux/moduleparam.h")
is tagged 'Fixes: 3e93bc2a58aa ("drm/virtio: make resource id workaround runtime switchable.")'
and does indeed fix this problem.

When patches are auto-selected for backports, would it be possible to also pick
patches fixing them right away ?
