Compiling with GCC 4.6.0 20100925 produced a warning:
/src/qemu/block/qcow2-refcount.c: In function 'update_refcount':
/src/qemu/block/qcow2-refcount.c:552:13: error: variable 'dummy' set
but not used [-Werror=unused-but-set-variable]

Fix by adding a function that does not generate a warning when
the result is unused.

What about a simple "(void)dummy" instead?

I would prefer that, too.

That also works. I'll use that in the next version.
