Subject: [PATCH 4.4 074/159] cpufeature: avoid warning when compiling with clang

From: Stefan Agner <stefan@...er.ch>

[ Upstream commit c785896b21dd8e156326ff660050b0074d3431df ]

The table id (second) argument to MODULE_DEVICE_TABLE is often
referenced otherwise. This is not the case for CPU features. This
leads to warnings when building the kernel with Clang:
  arch/arm/crypto/aes-ce-glue.c:450:1: warning: variable
    'cpu_feature_match_AES' is not needed and will not be emitted
    [-Wunneeded-internal-declaration]
  module_cpu_feature_match(AES, aes_init);
  ^

Avoid warnings by using __maybe_unused, similar to commit 1f318a8bafcf
("modules: mark __inittest/__exittest as __maybe_unused").

Fixes: 67bad2fdb754 ("cpu: add generic support for CPU feature based module autoloading")
