Subject: drivers/staging/lustre: Fix another C compiler whine: set but not used
X-Git-Url: https://git.karo-electronics.de/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=5aec2e0791a5a76bec020b088a8b8a10afcfd522;p=linux-beck.git

drivers/staging/lustre: Fix another C compiler whine: set but not used

  CC [M]  drivers/staging/lustre/lustre/libcfs/module.o
drivers/staging/lustre/lustre/libcfs/module.c: In function 'lustre_insert_debugfs':
drivers/staging/lustre/lustre/libcfs/module.c:670:17: warning: variable 'entry' set but not used [-Wunused-but-set-variable]
  struct dentry *entry;
                     ^

Just ignore the dentry returned, and add a comment that we *know*
we're not really leaking the dentry because something else will be able
to reap it via recursion.
