Subject: include/linux/mm.h: add prototype for __add_to_page_cache_locked()
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
for a few architectures.
Adding a prototype will silence the warning.
