Clang 18 and newer warns (or errors with CONFIG_WERROR=y):

  security/apparmor/domain.c:695:3: error: label followed by a declaration is a C23 extension [-Werror,-Wc23-extensions]
    695 |                 struct aa_profile *new_profile = NULL;
        |                 ^

With Clang 17 and older, this is just an unconditional hard error:

  security/apparmor/domain.c:695:3: error: expected expression
    695 |                 struct aa_profile *new_profile = NULL;
        |                 ^
  security/apparmor/domain.c:697:3: error: use of undeclared identifier 'new_profile'
    697 |                 new_profile = aa_new_learning_profile(profile, false, name,
        |                 ^
  security/apparmor/domain.c:699:8: error: use of undeclared identifier 'new_profile'
    699 |                 if (!new_profile) {
        |                      ^
  security/apparmor/domain.c:704:11: error: use of undeclared identifier 'new_profile'
    704 |                         new = &new_profile->label;
        |                                ^

Add a semicolon directly after the label to create an empty statement,
which keeps the original intent of the code while clearing up the
warning/error on all clang versions.

thanks for the patch, but I went with an alternate version, that I did last Sunday
(sorry I guess I forgot to push the tree). Since I hadn't pushed the tree I did
consider replacing my patch with it but in the end decided to not go with
the C99 variable declaration, moving the var to the top of the outer block (what
my Sunday patch did).

The reason being that while I don't think the style guideline forbid them, I end
up getting patches for them anyways, as some compiler flag sets will warn about
them.

Thanks for the information, I considered doing the same thing but went
with the minimal fix just for ease of acceptance. Appreciate you getting
this resolved now.

For what it's worth, commit b5ec6fd286df ("kbuild: Drop
-Wdeclaration-after-statement") dropped the option that warns about
that, so you should not have to worry about that anymore.

Cheers,
Nathan
