No, suppressing warnings like that would be bad. Instead, you write
functions like this:
#ifdef CONFIG_FOO
extern int register_foo(foo_fn myfunction);
#else
static inline int register_foo(foo_fn myfunction)
{
return 0;
}
#endif /* CONFIG_FOO */
That way, there's no unused warning, but gcc knows enough to discard
the function.
Hope that clarifies!
