This would trigger a really unnecessary build warning due to lack of
commit b5ec6fd286df ("kbuild: Drop -Wdeclaration-after-statement") in
5.10/5.15 kernels.
I wonder if that commit can just be ported to 5.10/5.15. You may consider
it.
Otherwise the current backport should be adapted to avoid declarations
after statements.
