Subject: [PATCH v4 03/19] powerpc: Mark variable `l` as unused, remove `path`

From: Mathieu Malaterre <[email-masked]>
Date: Thu, 5 Apr 2018 22:26:48 +0200

Add gcc attribute unused for `l` variable, replace `path` variable directly
with prom_scratch. Fix warnings treated as errors with W=1:

  arch/powerpc/kernel/prom_init.c:607:6: error: variable ‘l’ set but not used [-Werror=unused-but-set-variable]
  arch/powerpc/kernel/prom_init.c:1388:8: error: variable ‘path’ set but not used [-Werror=unused-but-set-variable]

Suggested-by: Michael Ellerman <[email-masked]>

v4: redo v3 since path variable can be avoided
v3: really move path within ifdef DEBUG_PROM
v2: move path within ifdef DEBUG_PROM
