I noticed your idea, but next time, don't add dead code like that.
Reviewers check patch by patch at the order they're present at the
patch series.

So, don't add something broken by purpose, assuming that it would

Checkpatch should be run patch by patch, as we expect that all patches
will follow the coding style and will compile fine, without introducing
warnings.

I do compile the Kernel for every single patch I merge.
