modpost: Declare extra_warn with unused attribute
A recent strengthening of -Wunused-but-set-variable (enabled with -Wall)
in clang under a new subwarning, -Wunused-but-set-global, points out an
unused static global variable in scripts/mod/modpost.c:
scripts/mod/modpost.c:59:13: error: variable 'extra_warn' set but not used [-Werror,-Wunused-but-set-global]
59 | static bool extra_warn;
| ^
This variable has been unused since commit 6c6c1fc ("modpost:
require a MODULE_DESCRIPTION()") but that is expected, as there are
currently no extra warnings at W=1 right now. Declare the variable with
the unused attribute to make it clear to the compiler that this variable
may be unused.
