Subject: [PATCH 00/16] Eliminate GCC -Wmissing-prototype warnings

GCC warns about functions without previous 
prototypes i.e -Wmissing-prototypes warnings.

In the following patches the following fixes have 
been adopted to eliminate these warnings:
    - Functions defined in a file, that are internal
      to that file have been made static.
    - Header files have been included in files whose
      non-internal functions have their prototypes defined
      in these headers files.
    - Adding prototypes for several non-internal 
      functions in the appropriate header file while keeping
      the structure definitions of the parameters used by the 
      functions in mind.
    - Add the prototype above the 
      function definition.

These warnings can be generated by adding -Wmissing-prototypes
to KBUILD_FLAGS in the top-level Makefile and then perform the
build.
