There was already a fix for this posted by Randy Dunlap taking a
different approach, ie. use __maybe_unused classifier. To be honest I
prefer the ifdef approach as it is more explicit and does not feel like
a cheat.

Actually some of the functions are between a flag already
PRISM2_NO_PROCFS_DEBUG which is in a private header file
hostap_config.h. Seems like this would be better placed in Kconfig and
depend on CONFIG_PROCFS. Anyway, this driver is old cruft. Maybe some
people are still running it, but it is probably not worth the effort so
fine with either fix.

Regards,
Arend
