Subject: [PATCH] video: fb_defio.c: local functions should not be exposed globally
Date: Wed, 2 May 2012 17:23:40 -0700	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <201205021723.40801.hartleys@visionengravers.com> (raw)

Functions not referenced outside of a source file should be marked
static to prevent them from being exposed globally.

Quiets the sparse warning:

warning: symbol 'fb_deferred_io_page' was not declared. Should it be static?
