Subject: Re: [RESEND PATCH v2] powerpc: mute unused-but-set-variable warnings

Is there a reason for resending ? AFAICS, both are identical and still 
marked new in patchwork: 
https://patchwork.ozlabs.org/project/linuxppc-dev/list/?submitter=76055

Indeed, the resend has an issue in the commit log and fails the 
checkpatch (a :: in Reviewed-by::)
