[PATCH 4.19 03/30] x86/asm: Ensure asm/proto.h can be included stand-alone

From: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@linuxfoundation.org>
Date: 2021-08-02 13:55:58
Also in: lkml
Subsystem: the rest, x86 architecture (32-bit and 64-bit) · Maintainers: Linus Torvalds, Thomas Gleixner, Ingo Molnar, Borislav Petkov, Dave Hansen

From: Jan Kiszka <jan.kiszka@siemens.com>

[ Upstream commit f7b21a0e41171d22296b897dac6e4c41d2a3643c ]

Fix:

  ../arch/x86/include/asm/proto.h:14:30: warning: ‘struct task_struct’ declared \
    inside parameter list will not be visible outside of this definition or declaration
  long do_arch_prctl_64(struct task_struct *task, int option, unsigned long arg2);
                               ^~~~~~~~~~~

  .../arch/x86/include/asm/proto.h:40:34: warning: ‘struct task_struct’ declared \
    inside parameter list will not be visible outside of this definition or declaration
   long do_arch_prctl_common(struct task_struct *task, int option,
                                    ^~~~~~~~~~~

if linux/sched.h hasn't be included previously. This fixes a build error
when this header is used outside of the kernel tree.
