Description

While porting CP to a new device, I discovered that many board.c files (I found 37) have this statement:

fourwire_fourwire_obj_t board_display_obj;

Strange thing is that this variable is only declared, but never used within the complete codebase.

Is there some special magic creating code that actually uses this variable?

Additional information

No response

I think its leftovers from older code.

So I could create a PR removing these lines from all these files?
