This results in a compiler warning about the unused function 
ni_release_gpct_mite_channel when compiling ni_atmio.c.  It was unused 
before of course, but now it is static, the compiler realizes it!

It could be fixed for now by moving the '#ifdef PCIDMA' and matching 
'#endif' to surround the whole function, though I guess we want to try 
and get rid of the #ifdef's eventually.  It's tricky because 
ni_mio_common.c isn't a standalone compilation unit, it's #include'd by 
some other .c files.  We might need to have a go at splitting it up at 
some point.
