__unused attribute on linux

[Bjoern Petri <bj...@sundevil.de>]

Hi all,

Specifying the unused attribute via "__unused"  seems to not work with 
my Linux gcc. According to 
https://gcc.gnu.org/onlinedocs/gcc/Function-Attributes.html, a different 
syntax should be used __attribute__((unused)). While this works for 
Linux, I have no idea whether this is fine for MacOS as well.  I already 
committed the according changes - can someone should shortly check 
whether the code still compiles on MacOS?

Regards,
   Bjoern

Hi,

Tested on my Mac, all seems to be ok, I'll use the GNU notation for other
cases, though some online docs say __unused should work as well with GNU :S.

Anyway, no problem!
