Subject: [PATCH 5.15 036/171] bpf, x86: Fix "no previous prototype" warning

From: Björn Töpel <bjorn@...nel.org>

commit f45b2974cc0ae959a4c503a071e38a56bd64372f upstream.

The arch_prepare_bpf_dispatcher function does not have a prototype, and
yields the following warning when W=1 is enabled for the kernel build.

  >> arch/x86/net/bpf_jit_comp.c:2188:5: warning: no previous \
  prototype for 'arch_prepare_bpf_dispatcher' [-Wmissing-prototypes]
        2188 | int arch_prepare_bpf_dispatcher(void *image, s64 *funcs, \
	int num_funcs)
             |     ^~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Remove the warning by adding a function declaration to include/linux/bpf.h.
