Subject: [PATCH] Makefile: enable -Werror=implicit-int and -Werror=strict-prototypes by default

The common error fount in forward-ported/backported patches is missing headers.
One recent example (files and function names are mangled):

    void foo(){}
    EXPORT_SYMBOL(foo);

gave only warning

    foo.c:12345678:5: warning: function declaration isn't a prototype [-Wstrict-prototypes]
    void foo(){}
         ^

    foo.c:12345679:5: warning: data definition has no type or storage class [enabled by default]
    EXPORT_SYMBOL(foo);
    foo.c:12345679:5: warning: type defaults to 'int' in declaration of 'EXORT_SYMBOL' [-Werror=implicit-int]

Now it's a fatal error. Tested on x86_64 allyesconfig.
