It's a good guide for new code, but... $ git grep extern fs/xfs/xfs*h |wc -l 345 $ git grep extern include/linux/*h |wc -l 6878 $ .... and the rule of "consistent with existing coding style" when adding code to existing files generally trumps any "style errors" that checkpatch might warn about. > So this patch also remove all extern function prototypes at xfs_iomap.h > to suppress it to make this code style in consistent manner in this file. Anyway, it's a cleanup patch to begin with, and there's only a few of them, so it's not worth complaining about.
