Ok. for now is_first_zpdesc() is only used to check erroneous conditions
on CONFIG_DEBUG_VM=y. Simply adding __maybe_unused will be enough to
suppress this warning.

However I'm afraid that it's too late to update the patch now.

Andrew, if you're ok I'll send a patch after the merge window's closed.
How does that sound?
