So I finally got around to trying to sort this out.

As you pointed out, this one is just the movement of an existing error
but isn't why the automation complained about the patch.
That said, should probably be fixed by declaring it in thread-info.h
alongside shadow_stack?

The 37 and 38 here is the source of the complaint though, this series
added an extra one of these warnings, so I don't think the automation
has done anything wrong here.

The number comes from the output of:
grep "\(warning\|error\):" $tmpfile_n | sort | uniq -c > $tmpfile_errors_now

And that appears to be correctly reflected in the report:
build_rv64_gcc_allmodconfig	fail	Errors and warnings before: 17343 this patch: 17344

However, I should probably go and do something to display the LoC that
caused the issue, since knowing it came from fortify-string.h doesn't do
all that much to help you know which change caused it to appear.

Thanks,
Conor.
