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'.
