Re: [PATCH 3/9] Add memory pool library

Hi Ram,

By marking all the generated functions MAYBE_UNUSED, we're
actually suppressing more warnings than intended. Maybe we can avoid
it and somehow find a way to mark only those functions that are really
unused?

If we used templates instead of macros, a smart compiler would notice
which functions are _never_ used.  But sticking to C, I think it is
fine to rely on humans checking by hand for now.  (FWIW no obj_pool
functions are unused at the moment.)

I tried leaving out the MAYBE_UNUSED for foo_init() before I realized
that calling it is optional.

Perhaps an extra parameter in obj_pool_gen?

Filling out such a list for each caller sounds to me like more trouble
than it’s worth.
