Subject: [PATCH 3.12 086/116] powerpc/mpc512x: silence build warning upon disabled DIU

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

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

From: Gerhard Sittig <gsi@...x.de>

commit 45d20e8348969a165c53cfb91f445e7cc599a9f0 upstream.

a disabled Kconfig option results in a reference to a not implemented
routine when the IS_ENABLED() macro is used for both conditional
implementation of the routine as well as a C language source code test
at the call site -- the "if (0) func();" construct only gets eliminated
later by the optimizer, while the compiler already has emitted its
warning about "func()" being undeclared

provide an empty implementation for the mpc512x_setup_diu() and
mpc512x_init_diu() routines in case of the disabled option, to avoid the
compiler warning which is considered fatal and breaks compilation

the bug appeared with commit 2abbbb63c90ab55ca3f054772c2e5ba7df810c48
"powerpc/mpc512x: move common code to shared.c file", how to reproduce:

  make mpc512x_defconfig
  echo CONFIG_FB_FSL_DIU=n >> .config && make olddefconfig
  make
