Subject: maple_tree: mark three functions as __maybe_unused
Date: Fri, 6 Sep 2024 22:15:06 -0400
People keep trying to remove three functions that are going to be used in
a feature that is being developed. Dropping the functions entirely may
end up with people trying to use the bit for other uses, as people have
tried in the past.
Adding __maybe_unused stops compilers complaining about the unused
functions so they can be silently optimised out of the compiled code and
people won't try to claim the bit for another use.
