Re: [C++ PATCH] warning about empty extern "C" structures

Yes, but I believe you want the author of the drivers know the
potential of semantics mismatch. E.g. you don't just want this to be a
g++ only warning.

I want to warn the driver authors, but they will ignore the warning.

Such warning in C code would be pointless. Because this is valid
GCC code. This is valid G++ code too. But extern "C" is an
intent to make a C++ interface to the C code. And the interface
is broken, about which a warning is desired.
