Normally I do it. Forgot sorry.

The first suggestion to do it came from CAN maintainer.
It is valid in general for ifdef.
I have checked all our drivers and we are changing them to use __maybe_used
because then we can easily find out if there is any problem
when function prototype has changed.

Thanks,
