Subject: [PATCH] printk: fix _entry_ptr build warning

We build with Werror and suffer build error when
enable CONFIG_PRINTK_INDEX, such as
gfp.h:223:2: error: unused variable '_entry_ptr'
ratelimit.h:31:3: error: unused variable '_entry_ptr'
kallsyms.h:172:2: error: unused variable '_entry_ptr'
[-Werror,-Wunused-variable]

Fix the warning by appending __attribute__((unused)).
