Building with W=1 shows many unused const variable warnings. These can
be silenced, as we're well aware of their being potentially unused:
./include/linux/lsm_hook_defs.h:36:18: error: 'ptrace_access_check_default' defined but not used [-Werror=unused-const-variable=]
36 | LSM_HOOK(int, 0, ptrace_access_check, struct task_struct *child,
| ^~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
security/security.c:706:32: note: in definition of macro 'LSM_RET_DEFAULT'
706 | #define LSM_RET_DEFAULT(NAME) (NAME##_default)
| ^~~~
security/security.c:711:9: note: in expansion of macro 'DECLARE_LSM_RET_DEFAULT_int'
711 | DECLARE_LSM_RET_DEFAULT_##RET(DEFAULT, NAME)
| ^~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
./include/linux/lsm_hook_defs.h:36:1: note: in expansion of macro 'LSM_HOOK'
36 | LSM_HOOK(int, 0, ptrace_access_check, struct task_struct *child,
| ^~~~~~~~
