Subject: thread_info: move function declarations to linux/thread_info.h
Date: Wed, 17 May 2023 15:11:01 +0200
There are a few __weak functions in kernel/fork.c, which architectures
can override. If there is no prototype, the compiler warns about them:
kernel/fork.c:164:13: error: no previous prototype for 'arch_release_task_struct' [-Werror=missing-prototypes]
kernel/fork.c:991:20: error: no previous prototype for 'arch_task_cache_init' [-Werror=missing-prototypes]
kernel/fork.c:1086:12: error: no previous prototype for 'arch_dup_task_struct' [-Werror=missing-prototypes]
There are already prototypes in a number of architecture specific headers
that have addressed those warnings before, but it's much better to have
these in a single place so the warning no longer shows up anywhere.
