REF: https://bugzilla.tianocore.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1004
Being a compiler builtin, the type of __builtin_return_address is already known to the compiler so no prototype is needed. Clang also errors out when redeclaring certain builtins like this[1], though currently only for ones with custom type checking. At the moment, __builtin_return_address does not use custom type checking and so does not trigger this error, however, the CHERI fork of LLVM, which will form the basis of the toolchain for Arm's experimental Morello platform, does use custom type checking for it, and so gives an error. Thus, simply delete the unnecessary line.
