Sure, doesn't really matter too much..

Um, where is this function actually called? I don't think anything calls
it. I was adding ghost pad support to the editor a couple days ago and
noted that ghost pads aren't actually supported in the xml save/load
code. We should probably fix that. Sure, change the prototype to match
what is in gst_pad_save_thyself.
