Subject: [GIT PULL] Kbuild -std=gnu11 updates for v5.17-rc1

Hi Linus,

This is a small patch set for -std=gnu11 migration.
As you requested, I separated this out.
I will send the second pull request later for the rest
of kbuild updates.

Thank you.

  Kbuild: use -std=gnu11 for KBUILD_USERCFLAGS (2022-03-13 17:31:44 +0900)

----------------------------------------------------------------
Kbuild -std=gnu11 updates for v5.18

Linus pointed out the benefits of C99 some years ago, especially variable
declarations in loops [1]. At that time, we were not ready for the
migration due to old compilers.

Recently, Jakob Koschel reported a bug in list_for_each_entry(), which
leaks the invalid pointer out of the loop [2]. In the discussion, we
agreed that the time had come. Now that GCC 5.1 is the minimum compiler
version, there is nothing to prevent us from going to -std=gnu99, or even
straight to -std=gnu11.

Discussions for a better list iterator implementation are ongoing, but
this patch set must land first.
