A make W=1 build of x86_64_defconfig gives: $ grep -c 'Wunused-but-set-variable' log 77 $ grep -c 'Wunused-variable' log 0 More exotic configuration will probably result in a couple of unused variable warnings, but that IMO no reason to disable them globally. > Shouldn't we just disable it as well rather > than workaround this in the code? The warning is just pure noise in this > case. If it's noise in a particular case, there is always the option to add CFLAGS_memcontrol.o := $(call cc-disable-warning, unused-variable) to the respective Makefile.
