From: Arnd Bergmann <arnd@xxxxxxxx> The __kernel_map_pages() function is mainly used for CONFIG_DEBUG_PAGEALLOC, but has a number of architecture specific definitions that may also be used in other configurations, as well as a global fallback definition for architectures that do not support DEBUG_PAGEALLOC. When the option is disabled, any definitions without the prototype cause a warning: mm/page_poison.c:102:6: error: no previous prototype for '__kernel_map_pages' [-Werror=missing-prototypes] The function is a trivial nop here, so just declare it anyway to avoid the warning.
