clang complains about an unused function:

As far as I can tell, the functions __check_##name are generated in
order to check the argument type by the compiler.

For gcc, the "inline" keyword is enough to suppress the "unused function"
warning even when -Wunused-function is used. For clang, it's not the
case (see https://llvm.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=22712).

A way to "use" the function is to use its name as a pointer and cast it
to void. This is what this patch does.
