I have this in my randconfig build tree, but it looks like I never
sent it out.

Subject: [PATCH] staging: vchiq_arm: mark vchiq_platform_init() static

This function has no callers from other files, and the declaration
was removed a while ago, causing a W=1 warning:

drivers/staging/vc04_services/interface/vchiq_arm/vchiq_arm.c:465:5: error: no previous prototype for 'vchiq_platform_init'

Marking it static solves this problem but introduces a new warning
since gcc determines that 'g_fragments_base' is never initialized
in some kernel configurations:

Add a NULL pointer check for this in addition to the static annotation
to avoid both.
