[patch/s390 40/46] allow usage of string functions in linux/string.h

[Martin Schwidefsky]

From: Rusty Russell <rusty@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>

In introducing a trivial "strstarts()" function in linux/string.h, we
hit the following error on s390:

In file included from include/linux/bitmap.h:8,
                 from include/linux/cpumask.h:142,
                 from include/linux/smp.h:12,

                 from include/linux/module.h:10,
                 from arch/s390/lib/string.c:13:
include/linux/string.h: In function 'strstarts':
include/linux/string.h:124: error: implicit declaration of function 'strlen'
include/linux/string.h:124: warning: incompatible implicit declaration of built-in function 'strlen'

Because when including asm/string.h from arch/s390/lib/string.c we
don't declare the string ops we are about to define, and
linux/string.h barfs.

The fix is to declare them in this IN_ARCH_STRING_C case, but in
general I wonder if there's a neater fix.
