I like that this patch-set is broken out into nice discrete patches,
including this one. So I'm in two minds about the comment I'm about to
make, but here goes.
As these helpers are unused this raises Warnings with W=1 builds on
gcc-13 and clang-18, which is generally undesirable for networking patches.
I can think of a few options here;
* Ignore the warnings
* Squash this patch into the following one
* Add some annotations, e.g. __maybe_unused or __always_unused.
Likely dropped in the next patch.
I think I lean towards the last option.
But I won't push the point any further regardless.
