Building with W=1 shows many unused const variable warnings. These can
be silenced, as we're well aware of their being potentially unused:

Looks reasonable to me, thanks Kees.  Unless James wants to pick this
up for the security tree, I can pull this into the SElinux tree with
the io_uring change which is causing the testing robot to complain.
