[RFC PATCH - diffstat only] include/net: Remove extern fromfunction prototypes

From: Joe Perches
Date: Tue Jul 23 2013 - 13:58:17 EST


Function prototypes don't need to be declared
extern in .h files. It's assumed by the compiler
and is as unnecessary as using auto is when
declaring automatic/local variables in a block.

I ran a script to remove these unnecessary extern
uses from function prototypes in include/net/ as
well as reflow the function arguments to 80 cols.

It's 370KB, far too large to submit at once.

Of course it could be broken into multiple patches
for the various directories/subsystems.

I believe it makes grepping for extern useful as
all the matches are actual variables and structs.

Thoughts?
