I tried that without success: the problem is actually the later acpi_os_printf()
that takes the result from acpi_ut_trim_function_name().

This one wasn't needed, I should probably have left it out. It just seemed
right for consistency to do the same for acpi_debug_print_raw() and
acpi_debug_print().

Right, so better __unverified_nocapture() then?

This fixed a warning about memchr_inv() for me: when check_bytes8()
is inlined, the compiler can see that the argument is not captured, but
if gcc decides against inlining, it warns.

I later got more warnings for some of the string functions, but we can
deal with them
separately.
