Subject: Re: [PATCH v8 2/6] time: sync read_boot_clock64() with persistent clock

> why we should remove the *extern* keyword?

Hi Dou,

While, I am not sure why it was decided to stop using externs in
headers, this is a warning printed by scripts/checkpatch.pl:

CHECK: extern prototypes should be avoided in .h files

To have a clean checkpatch output I removed externs.

Pavel
