I see new warnings:

drivers/mtd/nand/diskonchip.c: At top level:
drivers/mtd/nand/diskonchip.c: In function ‘doc200x_correct_data’:
drivers/mtd/nand/diskonchip.c:915:6: warning: unused variable ‘emptymatch’ [-Wunused-variable]
  int emptymatch = 1;
      ^
drivers/mtd/nand/diskonchip.c:79:15: warning: ‘empty_read_syndrome’ defined but not used [-Wunused-variable]
 static u_char empty_read_syndrome[6] = { 0x26, 0xff, 0x6d, 0x47, 0x73, 0x7a };
               ^

I'd also like test results for these drivers before doing this. And I'm
not sure how to find good testers for these drivers, even it users still
exist.
