4.4-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know. ------------------ From: Andy Shevchenko <andriy.shevchenko@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> [ Upstream commit b23ec59926faf05b0c43680d05671c484e810ac4 ] Since we put static variable to a header file it's copied to each module that includes the header. But not all of them are actually used it. Mark gpio_suffixes array with __maybe_unused to hide a compiler warning: In file included from drivers/gpio/gpiolib-legacy.c:6:0: drivers/gpio/gpiolib.h:95:27: warning: ‘gpio_suffixes’ defined but not used [-Wunused-const-variable=] static const char * const gpio_suffixes[] = { "gpios", "gpio" }; ^~~~~~~~~~~~~ In file included from drivers/gpio/gpiolib-devprop.c:17:0: drivers/gpio/gpiolib.h:95:27: warning: ‘gpio_suffixes’ defined but not used [-Wunused-const-variable=] static const char * const gpio_suffixes[] = { "gpios", "gpio" }; ^~~~~~~~~~~~~ Signed-off-by: Andy Shevchenko <andriy.shevchenko@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> Signed-off-by: Linus Walleij <linus.walleij@xxxxxxxxxx> Signed-off-by: Sasha Levin <alexander.levin@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> --- drivers/gpio/gpiolib.h | 2 +- 1 file changed, 1 insertion(+), 1 deletion(-) --- a/drivers/gpio/gpiolib.h +++ b/drivers/gpio/gpiolib.h @@ -30,7 +30,7 @@ struct acpi_gpio_info { }; /* gpio suffixes used for ACPI and device tree lookup */ -static const char * const gpio_suffixes[] = { "gpios", "gpio" }; +static __maybe_unused const char * const gpio_suffixes[] = { "gpios", "gpio" }; #ifdef CONFIG_ACPI void acpi_gpiochip_add(struct gpio_chip *chip);
