The first variant is an external symbol. The tegra_cpu_car_ops* must be
specified somewhere, otherwise linkage will fail. The __maybe_unused
won't help here because symbol must be resolved by linker for the code
where it's used.

The latter variant is a static NULL pointer marked as __maybe_unused.
This allows to include header file universally without producing
compiler warning about the unused static variable during compile-testing.
