[Xen-devel] [PATCH for-4.13 5/6] xen/arm: mm: Mark check_memory_layout_alignment_constraints as unused
Posted by Julien Grall 6 years, 4 months ago
Clang will throw an error if a function is unused unless you tell
to ignore it. This can be done using __maybe_unused.

While modifying the declaration, update it to match prototype of similar
functions (see build_assertions). This helps to understand that the sole
purpose of the function is to hold BUILD_BUG_ON().

    Changes in v2:
        - Update the prototype to match style of other functions holding
        on build assertions.

I'd like something like "Note that the function is now marked as __init"
to the commit message, but in any case:

This is already implied with "update it to match prototype of similar functions".
