[PATCH] ARM: bcm2835: remove unused __packet

From: Ben Dooks <hidden>
Date: 2016-06-07 17:49:43

The driver defines a variable called __packet but then never
uses it, and does not export it for others to use either. Fix
the warning about undeclared variable by removing it.

drivers/soc/bcm/raspberrypi-power.c:48:3: warning: symbol '__packet' was not declared. Should it be static?

PM folks: I'd be happy to see this go through your trees, but either way
is fine with me.

The patch looks good, but it's probably worth mentioning here that
this was intended to be the '__packed' attribute instead of a local
variable. The attribute is useless here, as the variables both
still get the default stack alignment, even if rpi_firmware_property
only requires byte-aligned data.
