Fixes commit d0a8d9378d16 ("x86/paravirt: Make native_save_fl() extern inline"). It was reported that the above commit was causing users of gcc < 4.9 to observe -Werror=missing-prototypes errors. Indeed, it seems that: extern inline unsigned long native_save_fl(void) { return 0; } compiled with -Werror=missing-prototypes produces this warning in gcc < 4.9, but not gcc >= 4.9.
