WTF: patch "[PATCH] drm/panfrost: fix -Wmissing-prototypes warnings" was seriously submitted to be applied to the 5.3-stable tree?

[gregkh]

The patch below was submitted to be applied to the 5.3-stable tree.

I fail to see how this patch meets the stable kernel rules as found at
Documentation/process/stable-kernel-rules.rst.

I could be totally wrong, and if so, please respond to 
<stable@vger.kernel.org> and let me know why this patch should be
applied.  Otherwise, it is now dropped from my patch queues, never to be
seen again.

thanks,

greg k-h

We get these warnings when build kernel W=1:

drivers/gpu/drm/panfrost/panfrost_mmu.c:435:5: warning: no previous prototype for ‘panfrost_mmu_map_fault_addr’ [-Wmissing-prototypes]

For file panfrost_mmu.c, make functions static to fix this.
For file panfrost_perfcnt.c, include header file can fix this.
