When CONFIC_CEC_NOTIFIER is not set and we only include cec-notifier.h
we can get build warnings like these ones:

"warning: ‘struct cec_notifier’ declared inside parameter list will
not be visible outside of this definition or declaration"

Prevent these warnings by using forward declaration of notifier
structure.

Isn't it enough to add a forward declaration of cec_notifier in the previous
patch? E.g.:

+#ifndef CONFIG_CEC_NOTIFIER
+struct cec_notifier;
+static inline void cec_register_cec_notifier(struct cec_adapter *adap,
+					     struct cec_notifier *notifier)
+{
+}
+#endif

Then this header doesn't need to change.

Regards,

	Hans

Yeah, it should also work :) I will add to the previous patch and
drop this one then.
