6.1-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.
------------------
From: Ian Rogers <irogers@google.com>
commit ddc8e4c966923ad1137790817157c8a5f0301aec upstream
If bison is version 3.8.2, reduce the number of bison C warnings
disabled. Earlier bison versions have all C warnings disabled. Avoid
implicit declarations of yylex by adding the declaration in the C
file. A header can't be included as a circular dependency would occur
due to the lexer using the bison defined tokens.
Committer notes:
Some recent versions of gcc and clang (noticed on Alpine Linux 3.17,
edge, clearlinux, fedora 37, etc.
