Like you said, was the question about being able to build the driver, or
getting your system to work with the driver?

It is not uncommon for some messages to appear because the version of GCC in
9.1 is newer than the code was written for.  These are warnings, not errors,
and the driver builds perfectly.  As long as you have the kernel source RPM
installed, there should be no issues.  The error messages that occur without
the kernel source RPM present are not very clear, and could be what he is
talking about.
