I am not against making add_submodule_odb() usable from outside
submodule.c but I would prefer if this change goes along with some code
actually using it. The reason being that when refactoring or extending
you immediately know that a function is file local only with the static
keyword. Without anyone using this function from outside submodule.c
this fact is still true and so the code should say, IMO.

Its not a big deal to postpone removing this keyword in a later commit
so I would like to drop this change from the patch. The documentation
fix is fine with me.

Cheers Heiko

 Subject: [PATCH] ref-iteration doc: add_submodule_odb() returns 0 for success
 
 The usage sample of add_submodule_odb() function in the Submodules
 section expects non-zero return value for success, but the function
 actually reports success with zero.
