Attempting to compile a 64-bit kernel without CONFIG_MIPS32_O32 defined (using GCC 4.8.1) results in the following compilation error: arch/mips/include/asm/syscall.h: In function 'mips_get_syscall_arg': arch/mips/include/asm/syscall.h:32:16: error: unused variable 'usp' [-Werror=unused-variable] Fix by adding __maybe_unsued to the definition of usp.
