All warnings (new ones prefixed by >>):

    kernel/trace/bpf_trace.c: In function 'bpf_perf_event_output':
    kernel/trace/bpf_trace.c:284:1: warning: 'bpf_perf_event_output' uses

     ^

Hmm, searching a bit on lkml, it seems these warnings on s390 are actually 
mostly
harmless I believe [1][2] ... looks like they are there to find structs sitting
on stack, for example, at least that's also what the currently existing one in 
the
above line (bpf_trace.c +284) appears to be about.

Yes it does look so. All such warnings happen only in s390:

% g -h -o '[^ ]*config' *dynamic-stack* | sort | uniq -c | sort -nr
   118 s390-allyesconfig
    80 s390-allmodconfig

Let's ignore all of them on s390.

Thanks,
Fengguang
