Hi Sasha,

While there is nothing wrong with backporting the -Wmissing-prototypes
warning fixes I sent, there is also really no point unless you
want to backport all 140 of them and then also turn on that warning
during testing.

The option is only enabled at the W=1 level or when using sparse (C=1).
I hope to get these all done in 6.5 for the most common architectures,
but I wouldn't bother putting them into stable kernels.
