The procfs interface changes caused one warning in afs for a now unused function:
fs/afs/proc.c:818:12: error: 'afs_proc_stats_show' defined but not used [-Werror=unused-function] static int afs_proc_stats_show(struct seq_file *m, void *v)
This can be avoided by using an inline function instead of a macro to reference it, so now the compiler can silently drop the function after seeing that there is a reference but that it is never called.
Unfortunately, this change triggers another warning where a function is hidden and now unexpectedly referenced:
drivers/mtd/mtdcore.c: In function 'init_mtd': drivers/mtd/mtdcore.c:1878:48: error: 'mtd_proc_show' undeclared (first use in this function); did you mean 'mtd_name_show'?
It seems nicer to keep using the inline function and removing the #ifdef here than to add an #ifdef around every single function we pass into proc_create_single_data(), so I'm removing the #ifdef here.
After a few hundred randconfig builds, this was the only instance I found that caused a problem.
