Otherwise it causes a gcc warning: ../mm/filemap.c:830:14: warning: no previous prototype for `__add_to_page_cache_locked' [-Wmissing-prototypes] A previous attempt to make this function static led to compilation errors when CONFIG_DEBUG_INFO_BTF is enabled because __add_to_page_cache_locked() is referred to by BPF code. Adding a prototype will silence the warning.
