From: Zhang Yanfei <zhangyanfei@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx> With CONFIG_MEMORY_HOTREMOVE unset, there is a compile warning: mm/sparse.c:755: warning: ‘clear_hwpoisoned_pages’ defined but not used And Bisecting it ended up pointing to: commit 4edd7ceff0662afde195da6f6c43e7cbe1ed2dc4 Author: David Rientjes <rientjes@xxxxxxxxxx> Date: Mon Apr 29 15:08:22 2013 -0700 mm, hotplug: avoid compiling memory hotremove functions when disabled __remove_pages() is only necessary for CONFIG_MEMORY_HOTREMOVE. PowerPC pseries will return -EOPNOTSUPP if unsupported. Adding an #ifdef causes several other functions it depends on to also become unnecessary, which saves in .text when disabled (it's disabled in most defconfigs besides powerpc, including x86). remove_memory_block() becomes static since it is not referenced outside of drivers/base/memory.c. Build tested on x86 and powerpc with CONFIG_MEMORY_HOTREMOVE both enabled and disabled.

So put clear_hwpoisoned_pages within CONFIG_MEMORY_HOTREMOVE should fix the warning.
