+Subject: disable new gcc-7.1.1 warnings for now
+
+From: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>
+
+commit bd664f6b3e376a8ef4990f87d08271cc2d01ba9a upstream.
+
+I made the mistake of upgrading my desktop to the new Fedora 26 that
+comes with gcc-7.1.1.
+
+There's nothing wrong per se that I've noticed, but I now have 1500
+lines of warnings, mostly from the new format-truncation warning
+triggering all over the tree.
+
+We use 'snprintf()' and friends in a lot of places, and often know that
+the numbers are fairly small (ie a controller index or similar), but gcc
+doesn't know that, and sees an 'int', and thinks that it could be some
+huge number.  And then complains when our buffers are not able to fit
+the name for the ten millionth controller.
+
+These warnings aren't necessarily bad per se, and we probably want to
+look through them subsystem by subsystem, but at least during the merge
+window they just mean that I can't even see if somebody is introducing
+any *real* problems when I pull.
+
+So warnings disabled for now.
