This reasoning is bogus.

Why the driver actually has all these static prototypes in its header
file is entirely unclear to me, but singling these two out for the
reason you state above is wrong (both the reason and picking only two of
them).

Hiroshi, you're the maintainer, what do you want to do ... since the
driver is ancient, I'm happy to leave it untouched, or if you want to
tidy it up, I see no reason to have any static prototypes in the header
file.

Thanks,

James
