Some more strict typechecking has recently been introduced (read more here: http://kerneltrap.org/node/view/3848 ) and this currently cause a lot of compiler warnings that have yet to be cleaned, but that will happen in time - faster if you lend a hand.

#if 0 /* Some people seem to have devices without ECC or erase marks on the Media Header blocks. There are enough other sanity checks in here that we can probably do without it. */
...
#endif
So it would seem that this bit of code could be on its way out. I'd assume that once it goes (if it does) that the variable will then be removed as well.
Ohh and btw, if you want people to pay attention to your emails you should try adding a descriptive Subject: :)
