Subject: Doubts in usr/include/linux/elf.h

Message-ID: <1232496986.3123.28.camel@localhost.localdomain> (raw)

 usr/include/linux/elf.h:379: extern's make no sense in userspace
 usr/include/linux/elf.h:387: extern's make no sense in userspace
 usr/include/linux/elf.h:401: extern's make no sense in userspace
 usr/include/linux/elf.h:402: extern's make no sense in userspace

#else
extern int elf_coredump_extra_notes_size(void);
extern int elf_coredump_extra_notes_write(struct file *file, loff_t *foffset);

Which things we can drop from this portion to get rid of above warnings.

Thanks
