[PATCH] video: fbdev: omap: Add prototype for hwa742_update_window_async() to avoid build warning

[Helge Deller]

The symbol hwa742_update_window_async() is exported, but there is no
prototype defined for it. That's why gcc complains:

drivers-video-fbdev-omap-hwa742.c:warning:no-previous-prototype-for-hwa742_update_window_async

Add the prototype, but I wonder if we couldn't drop exporting the symbol
instead. Since omapfb_update_window_async() is exported the same way,
are there any users outside of the tree?

It looks like there are no non-local users of any of those two functions 
either, so we could make them static, and I'm not aware of any out of tree 
users, but let's ask more deeply involved people.  Tony, Aaro, Tomi, can 
you please confirm?

Thanks,
Janusz
