But it is. The more false positives I get in the dead-symbol reports,
the harder it will be to spot real problems like that business in the
ARM kernel.c file.
I grant you this wasn't a problem before I wrote kxref.py, but it is
one now. New tools create new opportunities, but they sometimes require
better discipline and working practices to be useful. This is one of
those cases.
