Subject: [PATCH] sched/cputime: silence a -Wunused-function warning
Date: Fri,  6 Mar 2020 10:41:44 -0500	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1583509304-28508-1-git-send-email-cai@lca.pw> (raw)

account_other_time() is only used when CONFIG_IRQ_TIME_ACCOUNTING=y (in
irqtime_account_process_tick()) or CONFIG_VIRT_CPU_ACCOUNTING_GEN=y (in
get_vtime_delta()). When both are off, it will generate a compilation
warning from Clang,

kernel/sched/cputime.c:255:19: warning: unused function
'account_other_time' [-Wunused-function]
static inline u64 account_other_time(u64 max)

Rather than wrapping around this function with a macro expression,

 if defined(CONFIG_IRQ_TIME_ACCOUNTING) || \
    defined(CONFIG_VIRT_CPU_ACCOUNTING_GEN)

just use __maybe_unused for this small function which seems like a good
trade-off.
