commit 208cbb32558907f68b3b2a081ca2337ac3744794 upstream.
It was reported that the commit d0a8d9378d16 is causing users of gcc < 4.9 to observe -Werror=missing-prototypes errors.
Indeed, it seems that: extern inline unsigned long native_save_fl(void) { return 0; }
compiled with -Werror=missing-prototypes produces this warning in gcc < 4.9, but not gcc >= 4.9.
Fixes: d0a8d9378d16 ("x86/paravirt: Make native_save_fl() extern inline").
