Instead of issuing (0) statements when !CONFIG_SYSFS which will cause
'warning: ', we'll use inline statements instead. This will effectively
do the same thing, but suppress any unnecessary warnings.

Applied, but please use more informative subject lines.

You should prefix your subject line after [PATCH ...] with
the name of the subsystem you are touching, a ": " then
the headline description.

So here you would have used "bridge: " and that's what I added when I
commited this patch.

Yes, of course I should have done, and usually do.

This was an oversight, sorry about that.
