Is this warning reported on ARM arch?

In Base.h, VA_START is defined as below for ARM arch. Do you mean VS2017 report 
the warning for below macro? 
If so, can you propose the change in VA_START macro to fix this warning, then 
doesn't need to update consumer source code. 

#define VA_START(Marker, Parameter)     __va_start (&Marker, &Parameter, 
_INT_SIZE_OF (Parameter), __alignof(Parameter), &Parameter)
