We can't remove the `type` variable in this patch already -- it's still
used by this call to `BUG()`. But we can drop the variable in the next
patch, where that call is converted to `advise()`.

So I'd recommend to either move this patch to after the next patch or to
keep the `type` variable here and remove it in the next patch.
