[PATCH 04/21] powerpc: Mark both tmp variables as unused

Since the value of `tmp` is never intended to be read, declare both `tmp`
variables as unused. Fix warning (treated as error in W=1):

  CC      arch/powerpc/kernel/signal_32.o
arch/powerpc/kernel/signal_32.c: In function ‘sys_swapcontext’:
arch/powerpc/kernel/signal_32.c:1048:16: error: variable ‘tmp’ set but not used [-Werror=unused-but-set-variable]
  unsigned char tmp;
                ^~~
arch/powerpc/kernel/signal_32.c: In function ‘sys_debug_setcontext’:
arch/powerpc/kernel/signal_32.c:1234:16: error: variable ‘tmp’ set but not used [-Werror=unused-but-set-variable]
  unsigned char tmp;
                ^~~
cc1: all warnings being treated as errors
