Ah, I understand what you mean now.

In use-package, this is exactly what the `:defines` keyword was created for,
so that you can indicate to the byte-compiler which variables will be defined
when the module is loaded.

This special handling is done in `use-package-normalize-keywords`, so one
could advise that function to intercept the list yielded by :defines and do
what's necessary to satisfy flymake. That is, if :defines itself isn't already
enough.
