stat-time: silence -Wunused-parameter regression Commit 2c5d5587 causes warnings on non-Sun systems when compiled under -Wunused-parameter; we've previously tweaked code in commit 81eb8486 to avoid such warnings. Prefer an attribute rather than a cast to void (the attribute is always okay to apply; gcc interprets it as 'may be unused', not 'must not be used', precisely to cater to #if chains where determining whether or not the parameter is used gets hairy). * lib/stat-time.h (get_stat_birthtime_ns, get_stat_birthtime): Prefer attribute over cast-to-void. (stat_time_normalize): Mark st as potentially unused. Signed-off-by: Eric Blake <eblake@redhat.com>
