Adding this macro doesn't give us anything that simply saying "__attribute__((unused))" doesn't give. But it does add a layer of kernel-specific indirection. If we're going to get kernel-specific, I'd prefer to see: __needed: suppress warning and don't discard, __unneeded: suppress warning and might discard. For me this fits better with how I think.
