[PATCH] net: socket: add missing declaration for update_socket_protocol
From: Chia-Liang Wang
Date: Sat Nov 22 2025 - 00:11:29 EST
When building with C=1, sparse reports the following warning:
net/socket.c:1735:21: warning: symbol 'update_socket_protocol' was not declared. Should it be static?
The function update_socket_protocol() is defined as __weak, intended
to be overwritten by architecture-specific implementations. Therefore,
it cannot be static.
Add a declaration in include/net/sock.h to fix this sparse warning.
