When we use a DECLARE_HYPERCALL_BUFFER_SHADOW define a user
pointer '_name' and a shadow xc_hypercall_buffer_t.
then call xc_hypercall_buffer_free_pages(_xch, _name, _nr),
the complier will report '_name' unused error, it's because
xc_hypercall_buffer_free_pages() is a MACRO and '_name'
transparently converted to the hypercall buffer. it confused
the caller because xc_hypercall_buffer_free_pages() do look
like a function and take '_name' as an arg.
Add an if check to let the compiler think we are actually
using the argument '_name'.
