Takashi-san fixed sound/isa/wavefront/wavefront_synth.c to use

I can't find any spar user of it, so please kill it.

it's in the solaris compat code which is modular


In the case a symbol
is needed only for a particular architecture it's better to do it in the
architecture-specific ksyms file than with an ifdef, btw.

agreed.
(well if it's only 1 or 2, if it's "half of them" it's obviously a different story)
