Hi Greg and Sasha,

We received a report of an objtool build failure with clang related to -Wunused-parameter [1], which turned out to be related to the distro's CFLAGS. Josh patched this up in commit f73b3cc39c84 ("objtool: Clobber user CFLAGS variable"), could it be added to -stable whenever applicable? Looks like it will pick cleanly to 4.19 but it can be applied to 4.14 with context differences.

Now queued up, thanks.
