This is sparse -Wdel option's job, see man manual:
-Wdecl Warn about any non-static variable or function definition that
has no previous declaration.
Private symbols (functions and variables) internal to a given
source file should use static, to allow additional compiler
optimizations, allow detection of unused symbols, and prevent
other code from relying on these internal symbols. Public
symbols used by other source files will need declarations
visible to those other source files, such as in a header file.
All declarations should fall into one of these two categories.
Thus, with -Wdecl, Sparse warns about any symbol definition
with neither static nor a declaration. To fix this warning,
declare private symbols static, and ensure that the files
defining public symbols have the symbol declarations available
first (such as by including the appropriate header file).
