When compiling u-boot with W=1 the extern inline void for read* is likely causing the most noise. gcc / clang will warn there is never a actual declaration for these functions. Instead of declaring these extern make them static inline so it is actually declared.

Ok, so the obvious question: what makes you decide to switch to 'static inline' rather than provide the extern versions that 'extern static' calls for?
(see e.g. http://elinux.org/Extern_Vs_Static_Inline for an example discussion on 'static inline' vs 'extern inline'. Note: this link is not intended as an expression of my stance on the issue, as I don't have any.)
Amicalement,
