Subject: [PATCH 4.4 58/70] gpiolib: Mark gpio_suffixes array with __maybe_unused

4.4-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Andy Shevchenko <andriy.shevchenko@...ux.intel.com>

[ Upstream commit b23ec59926faf05b0c43680d05671c484e810ac4 ]

Since we put static variable to a header file it's copied to each module
that includes the header. But not all of them are actually used it.

Mark gpio_suffixes array with __maybe_unused to hide a compiler warning:
