Now I see where does the confusion come from. 2.6.19-rc6-mm1 has 
hotplug-cpu-clean-up-hotcpu_notifier-use.patch from Ingo (CC added), which 
does this, among other things:

-#define hotcpu_notifier(fn, pri)       do { } while (0)
-#define register_hotcpu_notifier(nb)   do { } while (0)
-#define unregister_hotcpu_notifier(nb) do { } while (0)
+#define hotcpu_notifier(fn, pri)       do { (void)(fn); } while (0)
+#define register_hotcpu_notifier(nb)   do { (void)(nb); } while (0)
+#define unregister_hotcpu_notifier(nb) do { (void)(nb); } while (0)
