I think you could use __maybe_unused to that effect, but it has the
disadvantage of hiding such messages forever. For instance if the
suspend/resume code was ever to be removed, then you wouldn't get a
warning at all.

And there's a corresponding #ifdef for the fimc_runtime_{suspend,resume}
and fimc_{suspend,resume} already anyway, so I don't see much point in
trying to avoid this particular #ifdef.
