"__unused" isn't defined anywhere I can find, except in:

src/linux/drivers/net/ethernet/amd/declance.c:#define __unused
__attribute__ ((unused))

But this does work.

- static inline type *__check_##name(void) { return(p); }
+ static inline __attribute__((unused)) \
+ type *__check_##name(void) { return(p); }

If this is preferred, I will resubmit.
