Subject: [PATCH tip/core/rcu 05/20] rcu: Remove unneeded rcu_process_callbacks() declarations

The declarations of __rcu_process_callbacks() and rcu_process_callbacks()
are not needed, as the definition of both of these functions appear before
any uses.  This commit therefore removes both declarations.
