NACK. Whenever Sparse issues this warning, you should first check to see if it
can be made static. Adding it to a header to make the Sparse warning go away is
not correct unless some other routine needs it to be globally known. In this
case, no other routine needs it.
Of course, making it static will lead to the compilation warning that the
routine is not used. The correct patch is to delete the entire routine as it is
never called.
