Clang will throw an error if a function is unused unless you tell
to ignore it. This can be done using __maybe_unused.

As you're already changing this...

The style used elsewhere is

static void __init __maybe_unused build_assertions(void)

which has the added advantage that it more obvious to future developers
that trying to put code other than BUILD_BUG_ON() in it is a bad idea.

It took me a moment to realise that this function deliberately wasn't
called.

Good point. I will update this patch (and the following one) to rename the 
function as well.
