When building with a version of GCC prior to 8.x, there is an error
around non-constant initializer elements:
drivers/power/supply/bq24190_charger.c:1978:16: error: initializer element is not constant
.vbus_desc = bq24190_vbus_desc,
^~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
drivers/power/supply/bq24190_charger.c:1978:16: note: (near initialization for 'bq24190_chip_info_tbl[0].vbus_desc')

drivers/power/supply/bq24190_charger.c:2022:16: error: initializer element is not constant
.vbus_desc = bq24296_vbus_desc,
^~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
drivers/power/supply/bq24190_charger.c:2022:16: note: (near initialization for 'bq24190_chip_info_tbl[4].vbus_desc')
Clang versions prior to 17.x show a similar error:
drivers/power/supply/bq24190_charger.c:1978:16: error: initializer element is not a compile-time constant
.vbus_desc = bq24190_vbus_desc,
^~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
1 error generated.
Newer compilers have decided to accept these structures as compile time
constants as an extension. To resolve this issue for all supported
compilers, change the vbus_desc member in 'struct bq24190_chip_info' to
a pointer, as it is only ever passed by reference anyways, and adjust
the assignments accordingly.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
