   Actually, I mentioned it expecting no one will silent a temporary warning :smile:

   No strong opinion on this. It will be interesting to see the response to this.

   Do we want to have a policy of silencing temporary warnings when their is a clear plan that will silence them? — this warning will be silenced when the fix for the banman fuzz test is implemented.

   On the other hand, the argument could be made that #22517 should not have allowed this warning to come up and this PR can be seen as a follow-up to that PR. A followup which finishes properly temporarily disabling the assert.

   Tested that this silences the warning on Ubuntu 20.04: master:

   0$ make 2>&1 > /dev/null | grep -o "Wunused-function" | wc -l
   1
   21
   

   pr:

   0$ make 2>&1 > /dev/null | grep -o "Wunused-function" | wc -l
   1
   20

   This warning disturbs developers’ workflow (compilation with -Werror fails).

   It does not matter whether it is temporary, semi-temporary, permanently-temporary, temo-low or should just be painted in purple color.

   Sorry didn’t see the warning in my patch

   nit: wouldn’t it be easier to just:

   0            (void)(banmap == banmap_read);

    I don’t think we need to follow every temporary change with a change to clean up warnings. If there is intent to use this function soon, I do not see the point of merging an intermediate PR that removes it just to be reintroduced.

    Edit: oh, you didn’t remove it. This seems fine to me (though still I don’t think we should be too busybody about this).

    again my fault for not noticing the compiler warning in the initial patch
