Subject: [PATCH] mm: add prototype for __add_to_page_cache_locked()

Otherwise it cause gcc warning:
          ^~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
../mm/filemap.c:830:14: warning: no previous prototype for
‘__add_to_page_cache_locked’ [-Wmissing-prototypes]
 noinline int __add_to_page_cache_locked(struct page *page,
              ^~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

A previous attempt to make this function static leads to
compile error for few architectures.

Adding a prototype will silence the warning.
