AFAIK, there are two issues:
1. https://lore.kernel.org/llvm/202110290334.2zdMyRq4-lkp@intel.com/
2. https://lore.kernel.org/llvm/202111020610.9oy9Rr0G-lkp@intel.com/
1 is a warning when W=1 is enabled (missing prototype from -Wmissing-prototypes)
2 is an error, since the function is not defined when building CONFIG_ARCH_RV32I
You are trying to address both issues in this patch.

No, you don't need the header file. The forward declaration is
sufficient to get rid of the warning, and the adding CONFIG_ARCH_RV64I
fixes the RV32I build.
