Yeah, I wonder if adding this to a kernel janitors TODO list or somesuch
would help speeding up the process.
Maybe Greg knows.
Greg, the question is whether we can get people to help out with
-Wmissing-prototypes
fixes around the tree. Currently, there are ~1400 warnings and we want
to have 0 and then add that option to the main Makefile.
It is very easy to do: you simply build the kernel with W=1, choose one
-Wmissing-prototypes warning and fix it by adding a function prototype
or declaring the function static.
It should be a pretty easy for newbies to get involved...

Sounds good.
Thx.
