Hi Dan,

Test building the driver in x86 I get the error pasted below.

However, now that you mention it, I made an ARM (64 bit) cross
compilation: making the function static builds OK without the warning.
I'll to do the same for a 32 bit setup.

So I suppose that making the function static is the right approach ?

FWIW, branch and cross-compiler:

- Remote: https://github.com/raspberrypi/linux.git
- Branch: rpi-5.17.y
- gcc: aarch64-linux-gnu-gcc (Debian 10.2.1-6) 10.2.1 20210110


-> x86 build error:
