yeah, if it's part of the default build now and not only with W=1, then we need to sync again.
Ideally opting in to extra warning flags should not be done via copy paste, which would avoid this problem. However there were some issues implementing that generically and some push back on making W=1 options automatically propagate to default flags in subsystems/drivers as per https://lore.kernel.org/all/20231006174550.GC3359308@dev-arch.thelio-3990X/ which also makes sense.
Cc'ing a few more people involved in that thread if they want to add anything.
