The fix is in ath-next but I'll pull ath-next into wireless-next and
then send a wireless-next pull request. So you should have the pull
request in few hours.

Sorry about this, I somehow understood this was a W=1 warning and didn't
prioritise the fix. After re-reading the commit message I can't
understand why I made that assumption, my bad.

What worries me is that the kbuild bot didn't warn this at all (or I
missed that as well). Is it using older clang version or what?
