For those interested in compiler, this is pretty interesting discussion: <a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;gcc.gnu.org&#x2F;bugzilla&#x2F;show_bug.cgi?id=89501" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;gcc.gnu.org&#x2F;bugzilla&#x2F;show_bug.cgi?id=89501</a><p>This bug ultimately duped into the bug linked on the thread.<p>These lines that Linus wrote are pretty interesting: &quot;It&#x27;s basically the compiler saying &quot;I don&#x27;t care what you meant, I can do anything I want, and that means I will screw the code up on purpose&quot;.<p>I will personally switch the kernel immediately to clang the moment we cannot turn off idiotic broken behavior like that.&quot;<p><a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;gcc.gnu.org&#x2F;bugzilla&#x2F;show_bug.cgi?id=89501#c12" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;gcc.gnu.org&#x2F;bugzilla&#x2F;show_bug.cgi?id=89501#c12</a>
