The patch titled
Subject: profile: hide unused functions when !CONFIG_PROC_FS
has been removed from the -mm tree. Its filename was
profile-hide-unused-functions-when-config_proc_fs.patch
This patch was dropped because it was merged into mainline or a subsystem tree
------------------------------------------------------
From: Arnd Bergmann <arnd@xxxxxxxx>
Subject: profile: hide unused functions when !CONFIG_PROC_FS
A couple of functions and variables in the profile implementation are used
only on SMP systems by the procfs code, but are unused if either procfs is
disabled or in uniprocessor kernels. gcc prints a harmless warning about
the unused symbols:
kernel/profile.c:243:13: error: 'profile_flip_buffers' defined but not used [-Werror=unused-function]
static void profile_flip_buffers(void)
^
kernel/profile.c:266:13: error: 'profile_discard_flip_buffers' defined but not used [-Werror=unused-function]
static void profile_discard_flip_buffers(void)
^
kernel/profile.c:330:12: error: 'profile_cpu_callback' defined but not used [-Werror=unused-function]
static int profile_cpu_callback(struct notifier_block *info,
^
This adds further #ifdef to the file, to annotate exactly in which cases
they are used. I have done several thousand ARM randconfig kernels with
this patch applied and no longer get any warnings in this file.
