[PATCH] fs: fix -Wmissing-declaration warning

From: Enze Li
Date: Wed Mar 23 2022 - 06:00:29 EST


I encontered the following warning when compiling with
-Wmissing-declarations:

fs/namei.c:2587:5: warning: no previous declaration for
‘filename_parentat’ [-Wmissing-declarations]
2587 | int filename_parentat(int dfd, struct filename *name, unsigned
int flags,
| ^~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~)

This warning was introduced by recent commit 43ff44bde7e5 ("ksmbd: fix
racy issue from using ->d_parent and ->d_name").

Address this warning by declaring the function as static, setting its
scope to the containing file.
