The point is that your patch introduce changes. Before S3C_UART_OFFSET
was defined to 0x10000, after (because of #ifndef) it will be 0x400.
Description of "unused" is not accurate. Unused stuff does not impact
anything.

That would be good.

The compilation is not a test. You compiled something like this:
-#define S3C_UART_OFFSET			(0x10000)
 #ifndef S3C_UART_OFFSET
 #define S3C_UART_OFFSET         (0x400)
 #endif

... and found no errors. Of course there are no compilation errors! But
the value has changed!
