While the C99, C11 and later standards introduce many other features, most of these are already available in gnu89 as GNU extensions as well. An earlier attempt to do this when gcc-5 started defaulting to -std=gnu11 failed because at the time that caused warnings about designated initializers with older compilers. Now that gcc-5.1 is the minimum compiler version used for building kernels, that is no longer a concern. Similarly, the behavior of 'inline' functions changes between gnu89 and gnu89, but this was taken care of by defining 'inline' to include __attribute__((gnu_inline)) in order to allow building with clang a while ago. One minor issue that remains is an added gcc warning for shifts of negative integers when building with -Werror, which happens with the 'make W=1' option, as well as for three drivers in the kernel that always enable -Werror, but it was only observed with the i915 driver so far. Nathan Chancellor reported an additional -Wdeclaration-after-statement warning that appears in a system header on arm, this still needs a workaround. Since the differences between gnu99, gnu11 and gnu17 are fairly minimal and mainly impact warnings at the -Wpedantic level that the kernel never enables, the easiest way is to just leave out the -std=gnu89 argument entirely, and rely on the compiler default language setting, which is gnu11 for gcc-5, and gnu1x/gnu17 for all other supported versions of gcc or clang.
