I really get grumpy when I have to fix up stuff like this:

net/sctp/ipv6.c: In function ‘sctp_v6_get_saddr’:
net/sctp/ipv6.c:382: warning: unused variable ‘daddr’

You guys know I'm going to immediately run make on any patch you send
me and look for new warnings.

Why waste my time and not look for them yourselves before posting the
patch?

This wasn't even one of those cases where the warning goes away at
the end of the patch series, and only exists somewhere in the middle.
