Subject: mm/memremap: mark folio_span_valid() as __maybe_unused
Date: Tue, 18 Oct 2022 08:26:46 -0700

When building without CONFIG_DEBUG_VM, clang warns:

  mm/memremap.c:495:13: error: function 'folio_span_valid' is not needed and will not be emitted [-Werror,-Wunneeded-internal-declaration]
  static bool folio_span_valid(struct dev_pagemap *pgmap, struct folio *folio,
              ^
  1 error generated.

folio_span_valid() is only used within a instance of VM_WARN_ON_ONCE(),
which evaluates to BUILD_BUG_ON_INVALID() with CONFIG_DEBUG_VM=n, which
ultimately resolves to sizeof(), which is fully resolved at compile
time. Basically, the warning is flagging that folio_span_valid() is
only used in a compile time context and will not be called at run time.

Since this is expected given the configuration, mark folio_span_valid()
as __maybe_unused so that there is no warning.
