Subject: [PATCH v2] lockdep: fix warning: print_lock_trace defined but not used

From: John Hubbard <jhubbard@...dia.com>

Commit 0d2cc3b34532 ("locking/lockdep: Move valid_state() inside
CONFIG_TRACE_IRQFLAGS && CONFIG_PROVE_LOCKING") moved the only usage of
print_lock_trace() that was originally outside of the CONFIG_PROVE_LOCKING
case. It moved that usage into a different case: CONFIG_PROVE_LOCKING &&
CONFIG_TRACE_IRQFLAGS. That leaves things not symmetrical, and as a result,
the following warning fires on my build, when I have

!CONFIG_TRACE_IRQFLAGS && !CONFIG_PROVE_LOCKING

set:

kernel/locking/lockdep.c:2821:13: warning: ‘print_lock_trace’ defined
    but not used [-Wunused-function]

Fix this by annotating print_lock_trace() with "__maybe_unused".
Thanks to Paul E. McKenney for suggesting this less intrusive fix,
as compared to adding more ifdef noise.
