From: Jackie Liu <liuyun01@xxxxxxxxxx> The compiler warns when the data are actually unused: drivers/hwmon/dell-smm-hwmon.c: In function ‘i8k_init_procfs’: drivers/hwmon/dell-smm-hwmon.c:624:24: error: unused variable ‘data’ [-Werror=unused-variable] 624 | struct dell_smm_data *data = dev_get_drvdata(dev); | ^~~~ [Why] If CONFIG_PROC_FS=n, proc_create_data is NULL, data is unused. [Fix] Mark them __maybe_unused to suppress that warning as well.
