Perhaps even __always_unused instead of __maybe_unused as these
variables are never used?

Also, what does this give us? Fixing a sparse warning?

Not a sparse warning. I noticed this while looking at the code.

If there's no warning, why do we need to ugly up the code with
__maybe_unused?

I'd rather call this a proper way of coding, than calling it ugly. But
perceptions differ.

If you want to push for a change to the official coding style, and
changing the warning options to go with it, go ahead (I'll argue against it of course), but until and unless you succeed at that, this isn't the
way U-Boot code is written. I don't see a single instance of
__maybe_unused in an argument list, or a single instance of
__always_unused anywhere in U-Boot other than its definition.
Unnecessary clutter is harmful to readability.

It's not worth arguing over a single line of code that isn't going to cause any significant change. That would save us both some time.

So you're withdrawing the patch?

I'm more concerned about the precedent it sets than the one specific line.
