Subject: RDMA/netlink: Add __maybe_unused to static inline in C file
From: Leon Romanovsky <leonro@xxxxxxxxxx>
commit 83dde7498fefeb920b1def317421262317d178e5 upstream.
Like other commits in the tree add __maybe_unused to a static inline in a
C file because some clang compilers will complain about unused code:
>> drivers/infiniband/core/nldev.c:2543:1: warning: unused function '__chk_RDMA_NL_NLDEV'
MODULE_ALIAS_RDMA_NETLINK(RDMA_NL_NLDEV, 5);
