Change subject: Fix -Wunused-parameter issues
......................................................................
Patch Set 5:
I personally think "(void)flash;" looks really ugly
It really does.
Though, I try not to judge it by asthetics but the potential
benefit of the warning. Does anybody recall or imagine bugs
that would be prevented by -Wunused-parameter?
In cases where the parameter can't be removed, adding the (void) cast is at least useful documentation since it signifies the author recognized this and didn't make a mistake by not using it.
Or maybe hide the ugliness behind a macro...
(please don't shoot me for suggesting that)
I think C2X will allow omitting the name of a parameter and just stating the type (which is currently allowed in C++ and silences this warning), so even though it's ugly now there may be less ugly options in the future.
