    There has been a push to remove extern from function declarations.
    Remove some instances of "extern" for function declarations which are
    caught by Coccinelle. Note that Coccinelle has some difficulty with
    processing functions with `__attribute__` or varargs so some `extern`
    declarations are left behind to be dealt with in a future patch.
    
    This was the Coccinelle patch used:
    
    	@@
    	type T;
    	identifier f;
    	@@
    	- extern
    	  T f(...);
    
    and it was run with:
    
    	$ git ls-files \*.{c,h} |
    		grep -v ^compat/ |
    		xargs spatch --sp-file contrib/coccinelle/noextern.cocci --in-place
    
    Files under `compat/` are intentionally excluded as some are directly
    copied from external sources and we should avoid churning them as much
    as possible.
