I don't really see the need for such a change but the patch LGTM.  Can we avoid
the warning by casting the result to void in case it becomes too awkward otherwise?
E.g.

	(void) data.release ();

In this case, for example, ...

> -  pt->header = header;
> +  pt->header = (struct perf_event_mmap_page *) data.release ();
> + gdb_assert (pt->header == header);

...we're storing the base pointer.  But we could also store &header-><some field>,
which would make it pretty awkward to use the result of release ().
