Hi Alvin,

Thank you for the patch.

CC'ing Hans Verkuil, to review the CEC side.

There's nothing wrong in rearranging functions, it is actually preferred
to adding forward declarations. You can submit a set of two patches, one
to reorder the functions, and then a second one to fix the problem. This
makes review easier by isolating the refactoring with no functional
change from the functional changes.
