Subject: [PATCH] clk: ralink: mtmips: quiet unused variable warning

When CONFIG_OF is disabled then the matching table is not referenced and
the following warning appears:

drivers/clk/ralink/clk-mtmips.c:821:34: warning: unused variable 'mtmips_of_match' [-Wunused-const-variable]
821 | static const struct of_device_id mtmips_of_match[] = {
| ^

Silence it declaring 'mtmips_of_match' with '__maybe_unused'.

I do not have much of a preference either, I tend to agree with your
reasoning for preferring the #ifdef but '__maybe_unused' is relatively
easy to audit on a per-file basis and I think that is more common than
the '#ifdef CONFIG_OF'.

Small nit, I think __maybe_unused typically goes between the variable
name and equals, like

static const struct of_device_id mtmips_of_match[] __maybe_unused = {

but this is obviously fine. Regardless:

I don't understand why there are two match tables in the same
driver, with almost the same contents. I have not looked very
closely here, but why can't we just drop the mtmips_clk_of_match[]
table (the one without the .data fields) and use the same
table for both? Is this because of the ralink,rt2880-reset entry
that is missing in mtmips_of_match, or is that another bug?

I also see that there is both a platform_driver instance for
late probing and a list of CLK_OF_DECLARE_DRIVER() entries.
Do we need both here?

I think this is fine; Arnd or Nathan do you have a preference? or thoughts here?

If not, thanks for the patch.

(I have a slight preference for wrapping the use in `#ifdef CONFIG_OF`
since with the approach used by this patch, if all users are removed
we will never get a warning for this var. But it's a weak preference;
it's more important to me that we don't have -Werror promote this
warning to a build breakage)

Ok, I see. It still looks like the two tables can simply be
merged by adding the ralink,rt2880-reset entry to mtmips_of_match[],
which will allow it to be used for mtmips_clk_driver (which doesn't
use the data) as well as for mtmips_clk_init() (which doesn't
need get called for ralink,rt2880-reset).
