Hi Greg,
I will  the following comment to document return value:

/*
 * Configure ports designated to operate as modem control lines.
 * Return mask of ports configured as modem control lines.
 */
static u8 sc16is7xx_setup_mctrl_ports(struct device *dev)


The kernel test robot identified a case, when CONFIG_GPIOLIB is not defined, where the value returned by sc16is7xx_setup_mctrl_ports() is not used. But the function sc16is7xx_setup_mctrl_ports() still need to be called to configure the modem status line ports correctly in that case.

And if CONFIG_GPIOLIB is defined, the value is definitely used (and needed).

Here is what I suggest to silence the warning:

	mctrl_mask = sc16is7xx_setup_mctrl_ports(dev);

#ifdef CONFIG_GPIOLIB
	ret = sc16is7xx_setup_gpio_chip(dev, mctrl_mask);
	if (ret)
		goto out_thread;
#else
	(void) mctrl_mask;
#endif

I could also store (define new variable) mctrl_mask directly inside struct sc16is7xx_port...

The function operates globally on both ports (or nr_uart), not just a single port. That is why I pass the "raw" struct device, in order to extract the 
struct sc16is7xx_port from it:

    struct sc16is7xx_port *s = dev_get_drvdata(dev);

Inside the function, I also need the "raw" struc device. If we pass a struct sc16is7xx_port to the function, then I can get the "raw" struc device with this:

static u8 sc16is7xx_setup_mctrl_ports(struct sc16is7xx_port *s)
{
	struct device *dev = &s->p[0].port.dev;

But I find this more obfuscated and hard to understand than to simply pass a "raw" struct device...

Hugo.
