That's the end goal with -Wmissing-prototypes for arch/x86/ at least.
We'll turn that on once all current warnings are fixed and won't allow
any more patches with it.

This is where the 0day bot would help with testing this but it really
should say that it is a W=1 build and should tone down the message
frequency as we're still very noisy.

Thx.
