This has been fixed and pushed upstream, why do you keep submitting this?

[PATCH] ixgbe: mark symbols static where possible

[Baoyou Xie]

We get 2 warnings when building kernel with W=1:
drivers/net/ethernet/intel/ixgbe/ixgbe_x550.c:2128:5: warning: no previous 
prototype for 'ixgbe_led_on_t_x550em' [-Wmissing-prototypes]
drivers/net/ethernet/intel/ixgbe/ixgbe_x550.c:2150:5: warning: no previous 
prototype for 'ixgbe_led_off_t_x550em' [-Wmissing-prototypes]

In fact, these two functions are only used in the file in which they are
declared and don't need a declaration, but can be made static.
so this patch marks these functions with 'static'.

[PATCH] ixgbe: mark symbols static where possible

[Baoyou Xie]

We get 2 warnings when building kernel with W=1:
drivers/net/ethernet/intel/ixgbe/ixgbe_x550.c:2128:5: warning: no previous 
prototype for 'ixgbe_led_on_t_x550em' [-Wmissing-prototypes]
drivers/net/ethernet/intel/ixgbe/ixgbe_x550.c:2150:5: warning: no previous 
prototype for 'ixgbe_led_off_t_x550em' [-Wmissing-prototypes]

In fact, these functions are only used in the file in which they are
declared and don't need a declaration, but can be made static.
so this patch marks these functions with 'static'.
