Subject: RE: [PATCH 09/11] mwifiex: Remove extern from function prototypes

Hi Joe,

Thanks for your patch.

> There are a mix of function prototypes with and without extern
> in the kernel sources.  Standardize on not using extern for
> function prototypes.
> 
> Function prototypes don't need to be written with extern.
> extern is assumed by the compiler.  Its use is as unnecessary as
> using auto to declare automatic/local variables in a block.

Thanks,
Bing
