Doing

 KBUILD_CFLAGS  += $(call cc-disable-warning, format-truncation)

in the main Makefile certainly cuts down on the warnings.

We still have some overflow warnings, including the crazy one where
gcc doesn't see that the number of max7315 boards is very limited.

But those could easily be converted to just snprintf() instead, and
then the truncation warning disabling takes care of it. Maybe that's
the right answer.

We also have about a bazillion

    warning: ‘*’ in boolean context, suggest ‘&&’ instead

warnings in drivers/ata/libata-core.c, all due to a single macro that
uses a pattern that gcc-7.1.1 doesn't like. The warning looks a bit
debatable, but I suspect the macro could easily be changed too.

Tejun, would you hate just moving the "multiply by 1000" part _into_
that EZ() macro? Something like the attached (UNTESTED!) patch?

Tejun applied an almost identical patch of mine a while ago, but it seems to
have gotten lost in the meantime in some rebase:

https://patchwork.kernel.org/patch/9721397/
https://patchwork.kernel.org/patch/9721399/

I guess I should have resubmitted the second patch with the suggested
improvement.

Yeah, I was scratching my head remembering your patch.  Sorry about
that.  It should have been routed through for-4.12-fixes.

The new one looks good to me.

Thanks.
