Subject[PATCH] Resolve 'Unused Result' Warning from proc-empty-vm.c
Date
From: angquan yu <angquan21@gmail.com>

In tools/testing/selftests/proc/proc-empty->because the return value
of a write call was being ignored. This call was partof a conditional
debugging block (if (0) { ... }), which meant it would neveractually
execute.

This patch removes the unused debug write call. This cleanup resolves
the compi>warning about ignoring the result of write declared with
the warn_unused_resultattribute.

Removing this code also improves the clarity and maintainability of
the function, as it eliminates a non-functional block of code.

This is original warning: proc-empty-vm.c: In function
‘test_proc_pid_statm’ :proc-empty-vm.c:385:17:
warning: ignoring return value of ‘write’
declared with>385 | write(1, buf, rv);|
