This patch as commit ad3cc2f05fda ("interconnect: Restore sync state by
ignoring ipa-virt in provider count") in -next causes the following
build warning when CONFIG_OF is disabled because of_match_node is just
NULL:

drivers/interconnect/core.c:1090:28: warning: unused variable 'ignore_list' [-Wunused-variable]
        const struct of_device_id ignore_list[] = {
                                  ^
1 warning generated.

Should it just be marked as __maybe_unused or is there a different fix
that would be more appropriate?

Cheers,
Nathan
