XZ_EXTERN was used to make internal functions static in the preboot code. However, in other decompressors this hasn't been done. On x86-64, this makes no difference to the kernel image size. Omit XZ_EXTERN and let some of the internal functions be extern in the preboot code. Omitting XZ_EXTERN from include/linux/xz.h fixes warnings in "make htmldocs" and makes the intradocument links to xz_dec functions work in Documentation/staging/xz.rst. The alternative would have been to add "XZ_EXTERN" to c_id_attributes in Documentation/conf.py but omitting XZ_EXTERN seemed cleaner.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the reStructuredText markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
