Hi!

I've fixed that and also the kernel version when the behavior had
changed and pushed, thanks for the review and testing.

The default std for gcc has been at least gnu90 for ages, which includes

explicitly pass --std=c90 or older it will work just fine.

I've moved the declaration to the top of the function nevertheless.
