[PATCH] platform/x86: mlx-platform: make a couple of structures static

[Colin King]

From: Colin Ian King <colin.king@canonical.com>

The structures mlxplat_dev and mlxplat_hotplug are local to the source
and do not need to be in global scope, so make them static.

Cleans up sparse warnings:
symbol 'mlxplat_dev' was not declared. Should it be static?
symbol 'mlxplat_hotplug' was not declared. Should it be static?

Thanks for the patch.
Since Vadim did some rather big driver changes I would like to hear
from him how to proceed with this one: either I apply it now, or after
we get Vadim's series in.

I'll be working with Vadim's series shortly and would like to take this
after that is settled.

I've asked Vadim to rework some of the mlx platform and hotplug patches, so I'll
be taking this now as it is a minimal patch - this way it doesn't get lost.

Thanks Colin.
