Subject: linux-next: build failure after merge of the regulator tree

Hi all,

After merging the regulator tree, today's linux-next build (s390
allmodconfig) failed like this:

include/linux/mfd/rohm-generic.h:93:12: error: 'rohm_regulator_set_voltage_sel_restricted' defined but not used [-Werror=unused-function]
cc1: all warnings being treated as errors

Caused by commit

8b6e88555971 ("regulator: rohm-regulator: add helper for restricted voltage setting")

--
Cheers,
Stephen Rothwell

Ouch. The stub in header should be inlined. Sorry for that. I'll send
incremental patch to Mark - please let me know if that's not sufficient?

As a second thought - do we need such a stub function at all? I guess
anyone who is actually adding a call to the
rohm_regulator_set_voltage_sel_restricted() helper should also have the
implementation selected. Failing to do so is probably indication of an
error. Compile testing could perhaps be an exception but this is
currently not supported.

Should I just drop the stub or make it inline? Am I overlooking something?

Best Regards

Dropping it does seem reasonable, I can't immediately think of a case
where the stub would get used. I've queued your existing patch to try
to make sure that a fix lands tomorrow so (assuming no test issues)
please send a removal patch on top of that.
