[PATCH 00/16] ARM: address -Wmissing-prototype warnings

From: Arnd Bergmann <arnd at arndb.de>

This addresses all arm specific warnings outside of the mach-*/ code,
which I've submitted separately. The majority of the patches should be
straightforward, either adding an #include statement to get the right
header, or ensuring that an unused global function is left out of the
build when the prototype is hidden.

The ones that are a bit awkward are those that just add a prototype to
shut up the warning, but the prototypes are never used for calling the
function because the only caller is in assembler code. I tried to come
up with other ways to shut up the compiler, and ideally this would be
triggered by the 'asmlinkage' keyword as Ard suggested in the past, but
I could not come up with a way to do this.

All of the warnings have to be addressed in some form before the
warning can be enabled by default.
