Subject: Cleanup of -Wunused-const-variable in drivers/net/ethernet/marvell/mvpp2/mvpp2_debugfs.c

Hey all,

I'm looking into cleaning up ignored warnings in the kernel so we can
remove compiler flags to ignore warnings.

There's an unused variable 'mvpp2_dbgfs_prs_pmap_fops' in
mvpp2_debugfs.c. It looks like this code is for dumping useful
information into userspace. I'd like to either remove the variable or
dump it to userspace in the same way the other variables are.

Wanted to reach out for opinions on the best course of action before
submitting a patch.

Thanks,
Nathan Huckleberry
